Don't use udevadm shellouts if possible #3

When writing https://github.com/jaypipes/ghw, I figured out a way around using udevadm for finding things like the disk serial numbers. Refactor the udevadm shellouts out of hwk

udevadm uses an in-memory database derived from parsing the PCI vendor/model information here:

Not sure if it's worth doing something similar :(
