field delimitors within fields in SEL output #84

Reported by: Jon Wilson
Original Ticket: ipmitool/bugs/489

Output from "ipmitool sel list" or "ipmitool sel elist" uses pipes or commas for field separation.

Data in the output may contain pipes. For instance:

3b | 05/25/2017 | 16:57:51 | Memory #0x02 | Uncorrectable ECC (UnCorrectable ECC | DIMMB4) | Asserted

or

10 | 05/01/2017 | 16:39:09 | Processor #0x09 | IERR (CPU 2 | APIC ID 35 ) | Asserted

Anything that parses this data by spltting on "|" will miscount the number of fields.

A workaround for the above data is to use CSV format. But this is fragile. Commas can also occur within fields.

Perhaps CSV output should surround field data with quotes, if the field contains a comma?
