Mathieu Mitchell 61f2f07569 Introduce support for APC MasterSwitchPlus and Rack PDU

Provide 3 new snmp_driver values for different APC product families:
  - apc_masterswitch
  - apc_masterswitchplus
  - apc_rackpdu

The "apc" snmp_driver is still supported and maps to the MasterSwitch driver
to avoid breaking backwards compatibility.

Different APC product families support different OIDs for power control.
  - APC MasterSwitch uses sPDUOutletCtl
  - APC MasterSwitchPlus uses sPDUOutletControlMSPOutletCommand
  - APC Rack PDU uses rPDUOutletControlOutletCommand
