This is the first of two patches that make it easier to run shiny-server on FreeBSD.

Delete every line w/o the version in it; drop the trailing ", and all the characters through the final double quote.

The second patch could be simpler but FreeBSD's deprecated procfs: https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=procfs&sektion=5

Forgot to mention the delete[] newargs; change was a fixup for a minor issue the clang compiler found.

@mtbakerguy I've been looking for a way to install Shiny Server on FreeBSD, based on your posts here and on the Posit forum it seems you have it figured it out. Besides making the changes in this PR, have you written down anywhere the steps taken to do so? I'd be most grateful! 🙏
