Description
Inventory data pulled by Rudder differs between Windows and Linux Hosts. When a Linux we show the full qualified domain name whereas when a Windows we only show the netbios name/hostname

Agent looks for FQDN using the following methods
(Get-WmiObject -class Win32_ComputerSystem).DNSHostName
fallback to
my $getComputerName = Win32::API->new(
"kernel32", "GetComputerNameExW", ["I", "P", "P"], "N"
);
and fallback to
$ENV(COMPUTERNAME)
but these methods don't seem to return the FQDN if it's set locally, not via the domain controller
it seems* a more reliable approach is to use
[System.Net.Dns]::GetHostByName($env:computerName).HostName
