#94 and #90 don't work on FreeBSD. Looks like hidapi on FreeBSD doesn't use /dev/hidraw.

Using the code here, requires you to need the hidraw kernel module (kldload hidraw).

@aokblast has been working on supporting hidraw in hidapi on freebsd for i2c hid devices.
So we probably don't need this for the long term.
