PEL: Add PEL repository capping related fields

If not capped, the PEL repository would keep taking up more and more
space as more PELs are added. In preparation for handling this, add
a field to the Repository class to track the total size that all PELs can
take up and a field to track the maximum number of PELs that can be
stored.

The size value is hardcoded to be 20MB (and 100KB in unit test), though
a Repository class constructor allows the number to use to be passed in.
The max number of PELs field is hardcoded to 3000 (100 in test) and this
can also be changed in the constructor.

In the future if different systems or configurations require different
values, then this could be set at configure time. This isn't done now
because I want to only add PEL options to the common phosphor-logging
configure.ac if absolutely necessary as the majority of phosphor-logging
users don't use PELs.

PEL: Find an entry in the message registry JSON

The message registry is a JSON file that holds data required to create a
PEL out of an OpenBMC event log. It includes fields like 'subsystem',
'event type', 'action flags', 'SRC reason code', etc.

Many fields in the message registry are optional, and a very minimal
entry make look like:

{
"Name": "xyz.openbmc_project.Power.Error.Fault",
"Subsystem": "power_supply",
"ActionFlags": ["service_action", "report"],

"SRC":
{
"ReasonCode": "0x2030"
}
}

This commit adds support to look up a message registry entry based on an
OpenBMC event log's 'Message' property (i.e.
xyz.openbmc_project.Power.Error.Fault) and then fill in a structure with
the fields found. Future commits will fill in the SRC related fields,
as well as actually create the PEL.

The message registry file can be found on the BMC at:
/usr/share/phosphor-logging/pels/message_registry.json.

For testing, users can put their own message_registry.json in
/etc/phosphor-logging, and that will take precedence.

PEL: Add repository to save PELs

Create the Repository class that can save PELs in (and later retrieve
them from) the filesystem. It provides an add() method that can add
a PEL object to the repository.

Now, when the Manager class sees an OpenBMC event log created with the
RAWPEL metadata in the AdditionalData property that points at a file
that contains a PEL, it can save that PEL. Before the PEL is saved, the
log ID and commit timestamp fields in the PEL will be updated - the log
ID to a unique value, and the timestamp to the current time.

PEL: Add function to generate unique PEL IDs

Create generatePELID() to return a unique 4B PEL ID every time it is
called. It will start at a base value, and then increment by 1 each
time. It uses a file to save the next value to use.

This will be used by the PEL handling code to create unique values
for the error log ID field in the Private Header section.
