meta-openpower: avahi: Append MAC address to the hostname

The idea of this commit is to handle situations where the
serial number is not written into bmc-vpd. In such cases,
the MAC address will be appended with the hostname to make
the hostname unique.

Tested By:

1. When BMC Serial Number is present:

Output:
root@witherspoon-YL10UF78A0H4:~# hostname
witherspoon-YL10UF78A0H4

2. In the absence of BMC Serial Number, MAC Address is appended:

Output:
root@witherspoon:/# hostname
witherspoon

After enabling first-boot-set-hostname.service and reboot,
root@witherspoon-70e284143365:/# hostname
witherspoon-70e284143365

3. When Inventory interface is not found:

Output:
Exits with error: "No Ethernet interface found in the Inventory. Unique hostname not set!"
Hostname will not be set. It remains the same.
