Future metadata from the LVFS will set the protocol the firmware is expected to
use. As vendors love to re-use common terms like DFU for incompatible protocols,
namespace them with the controlling company ID with an approximate reverse DNS
namespace.
This also allows more than one plugin to define support for the same protocol,
for instance rts54hid+rts54hub and synapticsmst+dell-dock.
Since the Redfish service may use a self-signed certificate without
specifying the hostname, we could have the problem to verify such
certificate. A new option, CACheck, is introduced so that the user can
decide whether to ignore the CA verification or not.

This commit adds redfish.conf to configure the IP and username/password
in case those are not available in SMBIOS and the EFI variables.
Since we can configure the IP in the conf file, the environment
variable, FWUPD_REDFISH_URI, is removed.

Redfish is an open industry standard specification and schema that helps enable
simple and secure management of modern scalable platform hardware.
This has only ever been tested using an emulator and not on real hardware.
