FreeBSD and Alpine Linux support about omnibus-crystal HOT 3 OPEN

I uploaded the FreeBSD tarball!

from omnibus-crystal.

I don't know much about omnibus, otherwise I would gladly help.

Notes:

• I added a freebsd VM to Crystal's Vagrantfile (it uses NFS because VirtualBox extensions aren't available);
• I build the FreeBSD tarball in the above VM using a 10 line shell script (make, cp, tar);
• BOEHM GC (and certainly other libs), must be built with per-platform specific compile options + patches; I always patch & recompile the official packages, otherwise libgc won't compile or segfaults.

I don't mind building the Alpine packages. They're built using the official abuild tool and I automated the build so all I have to do is change the version in APKBUILD then run make.

Well, if you want to take care of building packages for these platforms after each release (about once a month) then it's fine with me :-)

Feel free to upload the tar.gz for them in the releases page. I don't know if you have access to that page, though, let me know.
