Clear errno before reading/writing

Ensure the errno is cleared before accessing
the sysfs file, so exceptions thrown without
setting an errno can be recognized as such.

Without this, the errno could still be set to
a nonzero value from a previous operation, and
the error handling code would think it happened
on the current operation.  The difference being
if there is a nonzero errno a Read/WriteFailure
error will be logged, and if zero the exception
will be rethrown.

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 full clean the repository again 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.
