sysutils/py-salt: Add patches to get the hostuuid more reliably

The attached patch lets _hw_data() validate the kenv output on
FreeBSD-based systems

Previously systems running in bhyve without smbios had a couple
of grains with the value 'kenv: unable to get ...'.

With the patch the kenv output is only used if it looks legit.

Additionally _hw_data() is modified to fallback to the hostuuid sysctl
when the FreeBSD-based system doesn't have a hardware uuid.

For systems running in bhyve there may not be a "hardware" uuid
but the hostuuid rc.d script whil generate a hostuuid from other
system properties and populate kern.hostuuid with it.
