Entry: Add GetEntry method
Add a GetEntry method to return the file descriptor of the Entry
log file. Even though there's a File Path property that has the
path to the Entry file, the caller may not have privileges to
access the file. This new method would allow bmcweb to be able
to offload the Entry log file.
The Entry log file is a binary blob file and is to be opened in
read-only mode.
