Joshua Boniface e56002baf8 Refactor into Python daemon and simplified shell
This commit makes a major change to the organization and operation of the RPi BMC software. The 'shell' (`bmc.sh`) has been greatly simplified,
removing all instances of `wiringpi` GPIO code. The shell communicates with a new Python daemon via a pair of named pipes in `/run/bmcd`.

The Python daemon starts and immediately executes two threads:
1) The first manages reading from `/run/bmcd/bmcd.cmd`, which handles the passing of commands from `bmc.sh`, such as 'powersw_press' or 'locate_on'.
2) The second manages writing the current host state out to `/run/bmcd/bmcd.state`, to be read from `bmc.sh` when needed. It does this every second
   to avoid blocking.

An additional thread with an Event handler manages the flashing power LED for the `locate` functions.

Joshua M. Boniface 347c65dd1a Added bmc.sh shell
This "shell" written in BASH provides the basic functionality of the Raspberry Pi BMC, making use of the WiringPi `gpio` command and `sudo` to allow privileged execution of certain functions by a non-root user.
