Hmm, we need a CI job for FreeBSD 11 added
Cirrus supports FreeBSD 11.4 so ought to be possible to add it to our
matrix.

Makes sense, as we don't reference kvm_dep anywhere.

In the top level meson.build, we appear to add -lutil as a linker
arg to the entire project, so i'm surprised this was needed.
-lutil was actually the first issue spotted, and when fixed, -lkvm
showed up.
Here's the original report I got:
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=249056
It contains some initial thoughts on this issue; there I also assumed
that add_global_link_arguments() could fix the issue, but was satisfied
with the current solution.
