The agent plugin smart was rewritten to be compatible with POSIX, and is now
available under the new name smart_posix. In particular, the new plugin works
with FreeBSD. With this Werk, the new plugin smart_posix will be available via
the bakery. The new plugin requires smartctl version 7.0 or newer to be
installed. Thus, a user must update smartctl before deploying the new plugin
via the bakery.
The old plugin smart will continue to work as before, but is now deprecated.
