Subject: [PATCH] inventory: report device class (form factor)

Derive a coarse device_class from SMBIOS chassis type + PCSystemType, with
VM detection (manufacturer/model) and Windows Server OS taking precedence:
Laptop / Desktop / Server / Tablet / Virtual Machine / Unknown. Surfaced in
opsbase on the device list and Hardware tab.
