dbus-sensors: RedfishSensor: Sync with upstream
This is a large change, but it adds another daemon to the suite of
existing dbus-sensors daemons, namely RedfishSensor.
This provides a service to read sensor data from a remote Redfish
server, in much the same way as other dbus-sensors daemons read their
sensor data from local hardware.
Input is D-Bus Inventory from entity-manager, for configuration.
Output is D-Bus Sensor objects, as with other dbus-sensors daemons.

Configuration doc (instructions how to configure):

Tested: Appropriately configured, it works. It pulls sensor data from
a live Redfish server, and makes it available locally. The data is
refreshed in a timely manner, and is suitable for use by consumers of
dbus-sensors Sensor objects, such as phosphor-pid-control for cooling.
