Add systeminfo (#3331)

This is a first attempt to bring additional system information into the
console (see #3328). It's certainly not yet perfect, but with the PR we
have a better basis for discussion.

I tried to keep the output small so that we get as much information as
possible in screenshots.

This is how it looks on my development system.

```bash
[03.01.2024 00:50.19.226] [INFO] System information:
 ### SYSTEM:   manufacturer: Notebook; model: N650DU; raspberry: undefined; virtual: false
 ### OS:       platform: linux; distro: Debian GNU/Linux; release: 12
 ### VERSIONS: MagicMirror: 2.27.0-develop; electron: 27.2.0; kernel: 5.10.0-20-amd64; node: 21.1.0; npm: 10.2.4; pm2: 5.3.0; docker: 20.10.24+dfsg1
 ```
 
 Why is it still a draft:
- [x] I have doubts that utils.js is the right place for the function. What do you think?
=> Update: As long as there is no better idea, it stays there.
- [x] Instead of working through all wishes you expressed in the issue #3328, I only implemented what was easy to achieve. And wanted to hear what you think about this approach.
=> Update: Some added. Of course, more information could be added later, as soon as experience has been gained in productive use.
- [x] I don't quite like the introductory line ("The following lines provide information..."). Should I perhaps simply replace it with "System information:"?
=> Update: Changed to "System information:"
 
 [Here](https://github.com/sebhildebrandt/systeminformation#function-reference-and-os-support) you can see what information we could easily add with the systeminformation package.
 
 It would be interesting how the raspberry field is filled on a raspi system and with docker there should be another line, but I can't easily test that now.
