Log:
  Remove hal
  
  Hal has been introduced as part of the Gnome2 desktop and used in many
  desktop application as an abstraction on the hardware layer, it has been quickly
  deprecated, but alternatives took time to land in freebsd.
  In most cases alternatives are now in place or upstreams dropped entirely support for
  HAL.
  
  As a result it is time to retire HAL
