Create Item.System from Exposes List

Similar to how Item.BMC objects are created from
{
  "Name": "BMC",
  "Type": "BMC"
}

We should be able to create Item.System objects from the same config
{
  "Name": "host1",
  "Type": "System"
}

This will allow creation of Item.System objects from the Board config.

Performed following tests:
1. busctl tree shows object created by EM
2. busctl introspect also shows that it implements the Item.System
interface.

Tested: on QEMU
