Skip updating value for faulted sensors

When a sensor is marked as faulted, the input value is skipped from
being read and updated in the sensor's dbus object during the monitoring
loop. This keeps the sensor's value set to its previously known state.

The hwmon documentation states that when a sensor input channel presents
an associated fault file, the measurement value provided for that
channel should not be trusted when the fault boolean has a value of
1. Not updating the sensor value follows this specification.

Tested:
    A non-functional sensor's input value is not read
    A non-functional sensor's value state in dbus object is not updated
    Any functional sensor's input value is read during monitoring
    Any functional sensor's value state is updated during monitoring
    All sensors without a fault sysfs file are read/updated normally

Exposes generic hwmon entries as DBus objects.

To Build

To build this package, do the following steps:

    1. ./bootstrap.sh
    2. ./configure ${CONFIGURE_FLAGS}
    3. make

To clean the repository run `./bootstrap.sh clean`.

D-Bus bus names

To enable the use of Linux features like cgroups prioritization and
udev/systemd control, one instance of phosphor-hwmon is intended to
be run per hwmon sysfs class instance.

This requires an algorithm for selecting a stable, well-known D-Bus busname.

The algorithm is <PREFIX>-<ID>.Hwmon<N> where PREFIX is an autoconf
configurable prefix (BUSNAME_PREFIX, xyz.openbmc_project by default),
ID is a std::hash of the /sys/devices path backing the hwmon class
instance, and N is the implemented phosphor-hwmon D-Bus API version.
