Description

Add a new safetly belt to freebsd-update to prevent a user doing a minor update (-pX) while having an unfinished major upgrade (9.x to 9.y)
Safetly belt can be disabled with the -F flag

Additionally, add the --not-running-from-cron flag they bypasses the TTY requirement, and allows freebsd-update to be invoked by orchestration frameworks, scripts, or otherwise.
