sysutils/hw-probe: add run-time dependency on `sysutils/lsblk' port

Helps to get more complete and accurate probe, e.g. `dual_boot_win'
property should be set correctly now.

sysutils/hw-probe: the port had been updated to version 1.6.1

Modify upstream source code a bit: 1) FreeBSD is definitely a known
BSD, so add it to the corresponding list; 2) limit GhostBSD-specific
"pkg rquery '%v' ports" command to GhostBSD: it tries to access the
network which slows down the probing process, sometimes considerably
(e.g. when network is not available or blocked); 3) search processes
correctly with pgrep(1), as filtering ``ps x'' output would capture
the grep(1) arguments themselves.

- Update to 1.6-beta2 (upstream reused the previous tag, so point
  GH_TAGNAME to the particular commit) and augment CATEGORIES
- Now dual licensed under LGPL-2.1-or-later or BSD-4-clause
- Conditionally depend on ports which are only available on x86,
  to make it usable on e.g. PowerPC (tested on Mac mini G4)
- Remove references to Linux and sudo(8) from the port description
  per request from the upstream author
