feat: report where an update comes from and whether it is a security fix, refresh the index, read the host status

For netOrk MVP 5, on napalm-device-types 2.3.0:

- get_available_updates (apt) runs the shared APT_UPGRADABLE_COMMAND and
  parse_apt_upgradable: origin and security from apt's suites, and a
  ValueError instead of [] when apt failed or its output was cut short.
- dnf/yum: check-update's exit status decides (0 none, 100 updates, anything
  else raises); security comes from `updateinfo list --security`, and is None
  when dnf cannot say. The repository column becomes the origin.
- refresh_available_updates(): apt-get update, dnf/yum makecache, apk update;
  pacman is left out (-Sy without -u invites a partial upgrade).
- HostStatusMixin: reboot required and self-patching, read over SSH.
- _run_privileged(): root runs directly, a sudo password goes through _sudo,
  otherwise sudo -n. Shared by service control and the refresh.
- _split_status() drops terminal codes before it looks for the exit status;
  a pseudo-terminal left keypad codes in front of the marker.

OpenMediaVault inherits all of it.

 For full functionality it is recommended to run as `root` or grant passwordless `sudo` for
 the above commands.
 
+`get_services()` and `manage_service()` come from napalm-device-types'
+`SystemdServicesMixin`; this driver supplies only the transport. An action runs as
+`timeout 45 systemctl --no-ask-password <action> -- <unit>.service`, so a unit that hangs
+on its way up or down cannot hold the session, and only the exit status decides whether it
+succeeded. Without a sudo password it uses `sudo -n`, which fails at once instead of
+waiting for a password prompt.
+
+On OpenMediaVault (napalm-openmediavault inherits this driver), enabling or disabling a
+unit that OMV manages itself — Samba, NFS, SSH — may be reverted the next time OMV applies
+its configuration.
