Richard Pioso 38d863e489 Simplify get Lifecycle Controller version ...

A Dell technical white paper [0], "Lifecycle Controller Integration --
Best Practices Guide", describes how to determine the Lifecycle
Controller version. See section 31.4, "Check Version of Lifecycle
Controller (LC)". It simply enumerates the DCIM_SystemView class. No
filter query is used to limit the items returned. And notably, that use
case does not require the LC remote service to be in a "ready" state.

That use case is implemented by the
dracclient.resource.lifecycle_controller.LifecycleControllerManagement.get_version()
method. It has used a filter query and waited for the integrated Dell
Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) to be ready. To align it with best
practices, this patch eliminates its use of a filter query and wait for
the iDRAC.
