Re-implement CPU metrics collection through sysctls.

This removes the requirement to run `node_exporter` as root or with read
access to `/dev/kmem` in order to get CPU usage statistics.

Once FreeBSD adds a macro for the `kern.cp_times` sysctl, the
`setupSysctlMIBs()` function should be replaced by usage of the macro.
