An update that contains one feature and has three fixes can now be installed.

## Description:

This update for lsscsi fixes the following issues:

Update to release 0.32 (jsc#PED-13948):

  * improve NVMe device parsing (e.g. /dev/nvme0c1n2)
  * print nr_hw_queues when available for SCSI hosts
  * make WWN printing for NVMe more consistent with output from SCSI devices
    (e.g. with -u and -t)
  * logic to select best SCSI id (--scsi_id) to output
  * fix issue where host managed ZBC devices don't output their size. [Fix also
    for RBC and CD/DVD.]
  * exclude NVMe listings when --classic given
  * supply "-" for generic NVMe device one line output so 'lsscsi -gb' output is
    consistent [jsc

Update to version 0.30:

  * add support for NVMe devices and controllers
    * to build without: ./configure --disable-nvme-supp
    * deselect at runtime: lsscsi --no-nvme
    * deselect SCSI devices at runtime: lsscsi N
  * add --brief for tuple + device_name(s) only
  * add --pdt (-D) for device type in hex
  * extend --size (-s) so when given three times the size as a logical block
    count is output
  * add --sz-lbs (-S) that is equivalent to '-sss' when used twice adds comma
    then logical block size
  * '-w' now decodes 128 bit WWN without truncation
  * /dev/disk/by-id/wwn- is not guaranteed to be persistent (or stable); instead
    use /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-
  * '-t' on a FC host was not printing the comma separator resulting in garbled
    output, fix

  * Lookup WWN using /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-* (bsc#1008935)

  * fixup display of 'lsscsi -t' (bsc#1047884)

Update to new upstream release 0.29 (bsc#977572):

  * '-u' now decodes locally assigned UUIDs (spc5r08)
  * as last try use T10 Vendor ID for lu name
  * if no lu name found, print 'none'
  * change '-uuu' to output the full lu name followed by the normal fields
    (which were skipped before)
  * add 'U' option, same action as '-uuu'
  * '-UU' prefixes lu names with 'eui.', 'naa.', etc
  * if '-s' given twice, lu size is base 2 related
  * if very long [h:c:t:l] then append space
  * print_enclosure_device() for FCP may be useless, comment out while checking
    ...
  * with '-t' print 0x0000000000000000 for non-SAS device in SAS domain

Update to new upstream release 0.28:

  * fix handling of scsi_level 0 (no compliance)
  * add SRP transport identifier
  * add --unit option for LU identifier (>= lk 3.15)
  * add (S)ATA transport identifier (>= lk 3.15)
  * make USB transport ids more consistent
  * fix FC transport id missing comma
  * add pdt strings for security manager and zbc
