[Nut-upsdev] [PATCH] Add OptiUPS VS 575C support to PowerCom

Heya,

after I bought an OptiUPS VS 575C and discovering it won't work with
Linux (silly me) I sniffed the protocol, found out it's very similiar
to the protocol in the powercom driver, so I ended up adding support
for that UPS to that driver.

The patch is against the current git HEAD and works fine for me since
weeks now. The shutdown sequence also works fine (on Archlinux).

This is my first contribution and I gave my best to read the developer
documentation and do sensible changes everywhere required, but if I
missed anything or anything can be improved, please let me know!
