Summary: check_yum - Check if YUM/RPM based system is up-to-date

Initial Comment:
check_yum does a check to see if a system is up-to-date
with all updates/patches. It's using the "yum
check-update" command on either local host or remote
hosts (using nrpe). It has 3 levels of return text:
1) Server is up-to-date              (no updates available)
2) Server is NOT up-to-date, xxx packages etc (There
are updates, will be a Criticical error)
3) Something wrong with yum etc etc (something is wrong
with yum, will be a warning)

IMHO there is no need for -w or -c parameters not even
possible i think :D


note:
I would like to see some feedback, i'm already using it
for like 10 servers, it worked oke here. We run it once
a day.

Have added this to 40 servers. Found that I have 2 RPMs to 
be updated and it is still saying that the servers are okay and 
have not updates? 
Did not see any flags to pass to the module.

Oke somehow check_yum was always reporting that there was 1
package to be updated (IF the system was not up2date
ofcourse). I fixed that in this release.
