Add a `bmc-device-id` collector #65

Closed bitfehler closed 3 years ago

bitfehler commented 3 years ago

When the bmc collector was extended to attempt to collect the system firmware revision the resulting IPMI request broke on some older systems. This collector can be used as a fallback for these systems. For obvious reasons, the bmc and bmc-device-id collectors cannot be used at the same time, which is checked at config load time.

This should finally fix #57.

Closed due to impractical consequences discussed in #57
