A wrapper around the uname call.
Works on GNU/Linux and MacOS.

console.log(uname())

// Utsname {
//   sysname: 'Darwin',
//   nodename: 'MacBook.local',
//   release: '15.0.0',
//   version: 'Darwin Kernel Version ...',

uname()

The uname() function returns an object containing sysname, nodename, release, version and machine.

If the internal call to the kernel's uname function fails an Error is thrown.
