Make ipmi whitelist optional
Not all users of ipmid want to use the whitelist. Or they want to have
their own that behaves differently. This change makes it so one can
disable the built-in whitelist so that OEMs can substitute their own
custom filtering or use none at all.
To disable the whitelist, pass --disable-ipmi-whitelist to configure.
This can be done in Yocto via a bbappend for phosphor-ipmi-host:
EXTRA_OECONF_append = " --disable-ipmi-whitelist"
Tested: Built with and without the whitelist enabled to ensure that the
whitelist is present when expected to be.
