Patch to add longoutput and performance data

[GoogleCodeExporter]

See attached patch.


    Added perfdata and longoutput with ERRATA IDs

    Option added:
      -l - runs yum list-security to get advisories and packages
    Perfdata now shows how many updates are available.

No more reaction on this, thus closing for now.

Further, this issue is partially a duplicate of #18 (see also there for the same question about "total number of upgrades & number of security upgrades" vs. "number of non-security upgrades & number of security upgrades".

And I think the idea with printing the errata IDs has the same buffer length problems as described in issue #5, so your patch would need to solve it some way (e.g. as I've described it there).
