This adds support for Equinix Metal by replicating the existing spec patching and code generation processes from [`metal-python`](https://github.com/equinix-labs/metal-python). This ensures a smooth upgrade path for adopting `equinix-sdk-python` and gaining access to other services supported by this SDK, and unblocks packethost/packet-python#136. The code added here does not align with Equinix or OpenAPI standards and is subject to change. In particular, handling of additional properties does not follow OpenAPI rules and must be fixed in a future release.

Packet Python is a hand maintained SDK managed by Equinix employees and the community of users. This SDK has been used by Packet and Equinix Metal users and developers for various integrations including the Packet and Metal Ansible Collections.
With the acquisition of Packet by Equinix and the relaunching of Packet's service as Equinix Metal, the name "packet-python" is showing its age. Additionally, the scope of services offered by Equinix Metal has expanded beyond the rate of contributions to this repo.
The Equinix Metal API's published API Spec has been evolving in this time. It is now ready to be used in generated SDKs and those SDKs are proving ready for integrations like Ansible, Cluster API, the Metal CLI, and Terraform.
Metal Python is the successor to Packet Python and is being used today to build the Equinix Ansible collection.
