Servers that have a BMC encodes the release version of their firmware
in the "Embedded Controller Firmware {Major|Minor} Release" fields of Type 0.
This information is useful to know which release of the BMC is actually running.
It could be used for some quirks, debugging sessions or inventory tasks.
This patch extract these 2 fields in DMI_EMBEDDED_FW_MAJOR_RELEASE & DMI_EMBEDDED_FW_MINOR_RELEASE
A typical output for a Dell system running the 3.75 bios is :
[root@t1700 ~]# cat /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/fw_release_major
3
[root@t1700 ~]# cat /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/fw_release_minor
75
[root@t1700 ~]#
