iDRAC power monitor

This integration will grab infomations from your Dell servers' iDRAC system :

• Server status
• Power consumption
• CPU and air temperature
• Fan speed

You can also start and shutdown the server from Home Assistant.

For this to work, the Redfish service must be running on it.

Tested on iDRAC 7 and 8 on multiple Dell PowerEdge servers.
