Run actions runner on FreeBSD Linux compatibility layer

[ChanTsune]

Hi! actions runner developers!

I tried to run a self-hosted runner on the FreeBSD Linux compatibility layer. When I attempted to run it, I encountered an error stating that the 'tar' command does not exist. After investigating the cause, I discovered that Directory.GetFiles was not functioning as expected in WhichUtil.Which. On FreeBSD's Linux compatibility layer, Directory.GetFiles does not work properly and consistently returns an empty array. Therefore, I implemented the equivalent functionality using File.Exists.

After overcoming this issue, the runner functions more or less as expected on FreeBSD Linux compatibility layer. https://github.com/actions/runner/issues/385

I am actually using a self-hosted runner in this repository with this change applied.

Hi @ChanTsune !

While I'm not an actions developer, I am also interested in this merged for similar reasons. The problem is that it no longer applies since https://github.com/actions/runner/commit/5107c5efb2b122903d95f59d492dfc9438419230. I've adapted the patch and now my freebsd-based worker seems to be ok:

                     }
                     catch (UnauthorizedAccessException ex)

Hope this helps
