For make-freebsd-flight the initial build to use is set by
cr-daily-branch, so that we can have FreeBSD flights from different
FreeBSD branches. I think this behaviour should be preserved, even if
ATM we only run FreeBSD flights from the master branch.

So I don't think this is strictly a bug for make-freebsd-flight, but
there's no need to have a specific set_freebsd_runvars.

Does this make sense? Should I add something to the commit message in
order to make this clearer? What about:

"The set_freebsd_runvars helper in mfi-common is a superset of the
original function present in make-freebsd-flight, and will attempt to
fetch the last anointed FreeBSD build as a last resort option if no
FreeBSD build is signaled from the FreeBSD env vars. There's no
reason to have this duplication, since the set_freebsd_runvars in
mfi-common is perfectly suitable to be used by make-freebsd-flight.

This duplication was wrongly introduced by d36a7d892f by adding a
set_freebsd_runvars to mfi-common without removing the original
function in make-freebsd-flight."

Thanks, Roger.
