Unsupported OS in bootstrap: Alpine Linux

I agree that I have searched opened and closed issues to prevent duplicates.

Description

I'm trying to build Redox from Alpine Linux, and the bootstrap script is incorrectly detecting it as FreeBSD.

Environment info

Operating system: Alpine Linux
uname -a: Linux UberPC-V3 4.19.128-microsoft-standard #1 SMP Tue Jun 23 12:58:10 UTC 2020 x86_64 Linux

Steps to reproduce

Run the bootstrap script on Alpine Linux with some dependencies missing.

Behavior

Expected behavior: Dependencies are installed automatically.

Actual behavior:

|------------------------------------------|
|----- Welcome to the redox bootstrap -----|
|------------------------------------------|
+ echo 'FreeBSD detected!'
FreeBSD detected!
+ echo 'Installing missing packages...'
Installing missing packages...
+ install_freebsd_pkg git
+ install_bsd_pkg 'sudo pkg' git
+ PKG_MANAGER='sudo pkg'
+ PKG_NAME=git
+ BIN_NAME=
+ '[' -z  ]
+ BIN_NAME=git
+ which git
+ true
+ BIN_LOCATION=
+ '[' -z  ]
+ echo 'sudo pkg install git'
sudo pkg install git
+ sudo pkg install git
> pkg@4.4.4
> Error! Not more than one entry file/directory is expected

Proposed solution: Add support for Alpine Linux in the bootstrap script. Its package manager is apk and its package repository can be browsed at https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/packages; an example of its usage would be apk add git.
