Inventory source: Homebrew packages #7

Description

@ineffyble

It would be very helpful if bumblebee also inventoried installed homebrew packages, which is another visibility gap from traditional EDR/MDM that has relevance to vulnerability management and supply-chain response.

Basic information about installed formulae should be collectable just by walking the Homebrew dir (e.g. /opt/homebrew/Cellar/<formula>/<version>/ for Apple Silicon, /usr/local/Cellar/<formula>/<version>/ for Intel, /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew for Linux), with more details gatherable from the INSTALL_RECEIPT.json file generated inside each dir.

Similar paths exist for casks.
