Replace UPS apcupsd with NUT with usbhid-ups support #243

Description

@rioachim

Status:

  • latest USB APC UPS firmwares no longer work properly with apcupsd, the apcupsd service loses communication with UPS after some minutes and log is flooded by "hid-core.c: control queue full" or "battery disconnected/UPS battery must be replaced/Battery reattached" ( APC Back-UPS BX1600MI spurious LOWBATT/REPLACEBATT events networkupstools/nut#2347 ).
  • previous APC firmwares work fine (before 2023), but the latest ones (2023 onwards) don't because the UPS now sends a series of messages [OL DISCHRG CHRG LB RB] as calibration
  • apcupsd 3.14.14 is no longer updated since 2016 and was compatible with APC only anyway
