FreeBSD doesn't have the same uevent and sys filesystem that Linux
does. So, use the VIDIOC_QUERYCAP ioctl to find out basic capabilities
for a device. The ioctl doesn't give us as much information, but it
gets things like webcams, VBIs, and radios. This is better than what
was there previously, which was returning unknown.
This makes some v4l-utils like v4l2-ctl a little more useful.
