env2mfile: Don't hard-code Debian as always being Linux

All official Debian release architectures use the Linux kernel, but unofficial ports like hurd-i386 and kfreebsd-amd64 use the Hurd and FreeBSD kernel, respectively. Map Linux to 'linux' and kFreeBSD ports to 'freebsd' as per the reference tables in Meson's documentation. For now, use the Debian system name such as 'hurd' for anything else (see #13740 for the question of whether Hurd should identify its kernel differently).
