Add kernel MCTP (AF_MCTP) support and transport-implementation option

-Added support for kernel MCTP (AF_MCTP) to enable MCTP communication
 using AF_MCTP sockets.
- Introduced a new configuration option 'transport-implementation'

The 'transport-implementation' option can be set to either:
- 'mctp-demux': Uses the existing mctp-demux transport method.
- 'af-mctp': Uses the new kernel AF_MCTP transport method.

Hardware Diagnostics for POWER Systems

In the event of a system fatal error reported by the internal system hardware (processor chips, memory chips, I/O chips, system memory, etc.), POWER Systems have the ability to diagnose the root cause of the failure and perform any service action needed to avoid repeated system failures.

Aditional details TBD.

Building

For a standard OpenBMC release build, you want something like:

meson -Dtests=disabled <build_dir>
ninja -C <build_dir>
ninja -C <build_dir> install

For a test / debug build, a typical configuration is:

meson -Dtests=enabled <build_dir>
ninja -C <build_dir> test
