Add reading of serial number stored on boards' EEPROM #164

Problem: it would be convenient to read the serial number of boards from the high level control system.

This would require to implement a FRU parser in order to find this information inside the EEPROM. The board serial number is written in both the Board Info and Product Info Areas (redundant information because we don't have good reason to differ them)
