[Bug 258863] "freebsd-update fetch" unnecessary IO when no updates [Fix provided]

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=258863

--- Comment #12 from tux2bsd <tux2bsd@protonmail.com> ---
My workaround, freebsd-update-probe.sh, provides a definitive measure with
regards to room for improvement within freebsd-update.  The previous work in
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D32570 shows where the fix should be applied but
the intertwined nature of freebsd-update does not make this as straight forward
as it should be (I bowed out at jail handling, as I do not use them).

freebsd-update-probe.sh, satisfies my needs and I have shared it for other
people to use if they like.
