inventory: enable updating extra properties

While the openpower vpd parser, in order to update inventory, retrieves
most properties from the vpd itself, 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.
