Description:
Beats is the platform for building lightweight, open source data shippers for many types of operational data you want to enrich with Logstash, search and analyze in Elasticsearch, and visualize in Kibana. Whether you're interested in log files, infrastructure metrics, network packets, or any other type of data, Beats serves as the foundation for keeping a beat on your data. Filebeat is a lightweight, open source shipper for log file data. As the next-generation Logstash Forwarder, Filebeat tails logs and quickly sends this information to Logstash for further parsing and enrichment or to Elasticsearch for centralized storage and analysis. Metricbeat Collect metrics from your systems and services. From CPU to memory, Redis to Nginx, and much more, Metricbeat is a lightweight way to send system and service statistics. Packetbeat is a lightweight network packet analyzer that sends data to Logstash or Elasticsearch.

sysutils/beats*: fix build on armv7

The patch "patch-go-sysinfo" ports a Linux-only go module to FreeBSD.
Due to two oversights, the patch did not build on armv7.  Fix the patch,
ensuring that all beats versions build on armv7 FreeBSD.  A subtle bug
is addressed, too: the patch would previously convert from microseconds
to nanoseconds for time.Unix() by multiplying with time.Microsecond,
which is not the correct value.  Multiply with 1000 instead.
