Description

humility pmbus has lovely verbose printing of PMBus data.

However, it's tightly coupled and hard to reuse, so we couldn't reuse it for humility ibc black-box (#325).

We should decouple the pretty-printing and reuse it!

Research direction

Start by tracing the humility pmbus command to find where its verbose PMBus formatting is coupled to command handling, then compare the reuse needed by humility ibc black-box in issue #325. Done means the pretty-printing can be shared by both commands without changing their intended output.
