Improve FreeBSD support (#33162)

This PR contains a set of changes for improving FreeBSD support (#15309,
#29550) and is a kind of follow up to the PR #20480 which added an
initial support for FreeBSD.

A summary of changes is as follows:
- Add some more freebsd conditionals which seem missing in the previous
PR.
- Implement `anonymous_fd()` and `current_path()` functions for FreeBSD.
- Improve detection of FreeBSD in telemetry and GPU detection.
- Temporarily disable LiveKit/WebRTC support to make build succeed.
- Remove support for flatpak since it is Linux-only packaging format.

Adding `RUSTFLAGS="-C link-dead-code"` does not seem necessary anymore.
It builds fine without the flag.

Known issues:
- Integrated terminal is painfully laggy and virtually unusable in my
environment. This might be specific to my setup.
- I cannot input Japanese using IME. When I type characters, they appear
on the screen. But when I hit return key, they disappears. Seems the
same issue as #15409.

My environment is MATE desktop on X11 on FreeBSD 14.2 on Intel Core
i5-7260U integrated graphics.

P.S. For those who might be interested, a work-in-progress FreeBSD port
and binary packages are available at
