Screenshot: ARM64, freebsd-update fetch before and after bootstrapping pkg

Re: comment 9

> Maybe the bug bites only when pkg is not bootstrapped. 

The bootstrap workaround is also effective on ARM64.

freebsd-update fetch: 

*     did work without pkg(8) in 14.3-RELEASE-p9
* did not work without pkg(8) in 14.4-RC1.
