Enable reducing the number of sensors managed by IPMI

IPMI is only able to support a finite amount of SDR records. Modern
servers are capable of exceeding the number of sensors the IPMI
specification can support.

The change made in this commit filters sensors from a service based
upon contents in a JSON configuration file.

Tested:
Confirmed the default compile resulted in too many sensors being
created.
Added the 'sensor_filter.json' file and confirmed the number of
sensors was reduced, and 'ipmitool sdr list' no longer exhibited error
messages.
