Adding native FreeBSD support to nvme-cli?

Hi,

I'm maintaining nvme-cli and working on the next major version release,
3.0. The original plan was just to clean up and refactor the library
APIs, which included introducing a transport abstraction layer to make
the nvme-cli project portable. This was done primarily to support the
Management Interface specification (out-of-band communication with an
NVMe controller) as a first-class citizen rather than a bolt-on addition
to the existing library interface.

And immediately Windows port happened... I was trying to counterbalance
this by figuring out how difficult it would be to natively support
FreeBSD. I've fixed all the build issues I found and created a dummy
implementation.

I don't have the time to fully implement the missing pieces, so I'm
asking here (sorry if this is the wrong place) if anyone wants to help
get it over the line?

Cheers,
