Yubikey-manager 4 moved away from using libykpersonalize and uses HID to
program yubikeys instead. There is currently no FreeBSD support for HID in the
package, which means that OTP (and other) subcommands fail:

  WARNING: No OTP HID backend available. OTP protocols will not function.
  Error: No YubiKey found with the given interface(s)

There are various possible solutions:

  1. Implement and upstream HID support for FreeBSD - I tried, but didn't
succeed (there seems to be ongoing work to support hidraw, but we're not there
yet)
  2. Re-import python code that makes use of libykpersonalize (probably over a
patch in the port)
  3. Document that this simply won't work and people should use ykpersonalize
instead
