Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm always frustrated when I try to install Netbird client on FreeBSD.
Currently you can do it only manually, the process described in #1505.
But this is not very convenient process.
FreeBSD have a awesome port system and binary package management with pkg.

Describe the solution you'd like
We should create a port to simplify installation and setup process for Netbird client on FreeBSD.

Describe alternatives you've considered
N/A

Additional context
The port PoC is ready, but currently we waiting for 2 issue fixes to be merged before I can submit new port to port committers.
#2383 #2384

#2386 could also be a blocker. It's better to enable and fix the tests and any potential bugs before allowing people to easily install Netbird on production servers and risk breaking something.
