Added support for auto-updated resource managers

Details:

* Added support for auto-updated resource managers. An auto-updated resource
  manager has its list of resources automatically updated as resources are
  created and deleted on the HMC, based on HMC notifications. (issue #1055)

  Added an example script examples/show_auto_updated_partition_manager.py
  to demonstrate an auto-updating enabled partition manager.

  Renamed the existing example script show_auto_update.py to
  show_auto_updated_partition.py, for clarity, and improved it by
  controlling the logging by a global flag.

* Renamed the Session.resource_updater property to auto_updater and the
  zhmcclient.ResourceUpdater class to AutoUpdater to take into account that
  the class and property now represent auto-updated manager objects in addition
  to auto-updated resource objects. Note that the property and class are
  still experimental in this version.

* Docs: In the description of the list() methods of the resource manager
  classes, described the optimized lookup behavior for auto-updated managers
  and optimized access via the name-to-URI cache.

* Added optimized lookup by name in list() methods of the following resource
  classes: `LdapServerDefinition`, `PasswordRule`, `Task`, `User`,
  `UserPattern`, `UserRole`,

Internal Details:

* Reworked the unit testcases for AutoUpdater to be more explicit
  in the testcase specification, and to add support for specifying
  inventory change notifications. Added testcases.

* Renamed the end2end testcase module test_resource_auto_update.py
  to test_auto_update.py and added a test function test_autoupdate_list()
  which tests the behavior of list() with and without auto-update.
