freebsd-update: improve pkgbase check

The previous version used a case-insensitive match (default for -x).
The presence of packages like freebsd-git-devtools and freebsd-ftpd
would falsely trigger the packaged base check.

Instead, just use `pkg which /usr/bin/uname` as a packaged base
indication.  pkg uses /usr/bin/uname to determine ABI, so we can rely on
it existing.  If it comes from a package then packaged base is in use.

Also, extend the check to all freebsd-update commands.  It is easier to
just disallow all commands, and easier to test.
