Add support for client/server or Similar mixed ipmitool

Use Case is:

  • Proxmox VE Host (CPU Temperature Controller, SSD/NVME Boot Drives)
  • Debian VM NAS (with LSI 9211-8i / 9207-8i PCIe Passthrough and several HDDs)

As such, the Control needs to be done in a Master-Slave Configuration most likely.
In the Most General Sense, it's a Master - N x Slaves Configuration.

  • Host
    a. Global Temperature Controller: set Fan Speeds
    b. CPU(s) Temperature Controller
    c. SSD/NVME Boot Drives Temperature Controller
  • Guest VM
    a. HDDs Temperature Controller
    b. HBA Temperature Controller ????

Essentially 2 Approaches are Possible:
a. Host does ALL the Control, Guest VM Communicates the Temperature Values
b. Split regulation as outlined above, Guest VM communicates the required Fan Speed

Probably a single Centralized Controller is easier.

In any Case, care shall be taken in case the Slave stops sending Temperatures/Fan Speed References, there shall be some kind of Interlocking (or "Default to 80% Fan Speed or something like that").
