inventory: enable updating extra properties
While the IPMI FRU parser, in order to update inventory, receives
most properties from the host IPMI, there could be some properties
whose values could be provided by other sources, such as the Machine
Readable Workbook.
Provide a mechanism to enable the above by having the extra property
information and values supplied via a YAML file, via which code is
generated, which in turn can be used by the parser to update inventory.
