Compile tested: mediatek, ubnt_unifi-6-plus, OpenWrt main
Run tested: mediatek, ubnt_unifi-6-plus, OpenWrt main, connected to both IPMI and serial consoles

Description:
This series adds

  • freeipmi packages, bringing IPMI tools and libraries to OpenWrt
  • conserver support for IPMI consoles, using freeipmi
  • conserver update to latest release
  • conserver bugfixes

FreeIPMI provides in-band and out-of-band IPMI software based on the
IPMI v1.5/2.0 specification. The IPMI specification defines a set of
interfaces for platform management and is implemented by a number of
vendors for system management. The features of IPMI that most users
will be interested in are sensor monitoring, system event monitoring,
power control, and serial-over-LAN (SOL). The FreeIPMI tools and
libraries listed below should provide users with the ability to
access and utilize these and many other features. A number of useful
features for large HPC or cluster environments have also been
implemented into FreeIPMI.

Linking conserver with FreeIPMI enables it to manage
serial-over-LAN (SOL) consoles in addition to the already
supported tty and tcp/telnet consoles.

The FreeIPMI library is huge. Adding a separate package
variant for this feature.
