Nut upsuser - Aug 2021 - RFC - new proposed variables and clarifications for the battery collection in NUT namespace

Hi there,

as discussed on the below Github PRs, I've recently proposed some
additional variables to deal with battery information in general, and some
Li-Ion specifics:

* PR https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/pull/1060/files
** Add "battery.packs.external": Number of external battery packs

* PR https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/pull/1062/files
** Add "battery.voltage.cell.max": Maximum battery voltage seen of the
Li-ion cell (V)
** Add "battery.voltage.cell.min": Minimum battery voltage seen of the
Li-ion cell (V)
** Add "battery.capacity.nominal": Nominal battery capacity (Ah)
** Add "battery.status": Health status of the battery (opaque string)
** Add "battery.temperature.cell.max": Maximum battery temperature
seen of
the Li-ion cell (degrees C)
** Add "battery.temperature.cell.min": Minimum battery temperature
seen of
the Li-ion cell (degrees C)

* PR https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/pull/1063/files
** Clarify "battery.date": Battery installation or last change date
(opaque
string)
** Add "battery.date.maintenance": Battery next change or maintenance
date
(opaque string)

As usual with RFC for new variables, feedback and comments are warmly
welcome.

Thanks and cheers
Arno

Hi NUT users,

following a 10 days period after my above announcement, I've considered the
absence of feedback and comments as an implicit approval.
I've hence merged the above PRs, which results in the update of the NUT
variables names and instant commands update:
https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/blob/6d30b8cd190b25cafdbc46f8dc4602fb68692270/docs/nut-names.txt

A special thanks to Roger Price for his support in this updated process!

Thanks and cheers,
Arno
