[PATCH][RESEND] lib: Add helper function to get release info

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king at canonical.com>

Add fwts_release_get() and fwts_release_free() to help get and free
the current disto release information.   fwts_release_get() returns
NULL if it cannot get the distro release information. Currently only
supports debian systems.

Example:

        fwts_release *release = fwts_release_get();
        if (release) {
                printf("Distributor: <%s>\n", release->distributor);
                printf("Description: <%s>\n", release->description);
                printf("Release:     <%s>\n", release->release);
                printf("Codename:    <%s>\n", release->codename);
                fwts_release_free(release);
        }

Some fields may be empty strings "" when undefined.  For unsupported
distros expect all fields to be empty strings if the release info
cannot be fetched.
