(FreeBSD) make psutil.virtmem_usage() actually return info about swap usage

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

From the doc:

...hence we're returning info about virtual memory, which is fine, given the 
function name.
Given we're about to rename virtmem_usage() to swapmem_usage() (issue 256) we 
now have the chance to return actual swap memory information, which can be 
determinaed by using kvm_getswapinfo().

This somewhat breaks compatibility as we're now returning a totally different 
kind of information but the usefulness of the previous one was doubtful anyway.

Committed in r1475.
