meta-ibm: Redfish: Enable new power/thermal
After over a year of discussion, Redfish released new power and thermal
schemas as part of the Redfish 2020.4 release.
These new powersubsystem, thermalsubsystem, fan, powersupply, etc
schemas can co-exist with the old power and thermal schemas.
The old schemas and the new schemas are controlled by different options.
The current plan for bmcweb is:
1. Until the new schemas are all in and tested, as a default, enable the
old schemas and disable the new.
2. After the new have been in and tested, enable them. This means the
old and new will co-exist if running the defaults. The sensor
collection behavior will reflect the new schemas, that is all sensors
can be found under the sensor collection.
3. After an OpenBMC release, at a later time, disable the old and add
appropriate deprecation.
This change here, enabling the new schemas, jumps meta-ibm to #2.
This reflects our desire for our Redfish clients to start using the new
schemas.
Some reasons why the ThermalSubsystem/PowerSubsystem are an improvement
on the existing Thermal/Power schemas:
1. They include the latest properties like LocationIndicatorActive.
2. Fans, PowerSupplies, Temperatures were arrays in the old schemas.
This was cumbersome and could hit limits of JSON arrays.
3. Large amount of static data mixed with sensor readings, which hurt
performance in certain cases.
4. Inconsistent definitions of properties vs newer schemas like Processor
and Memory schemas.

Tested: Built bmcweb. See the new sensor behavior.
