Building NUT integration for Home Assistant

Originally posted by @DaftHonk at https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/issues/590#issuecomment-966777679

I built my own container for Home Assistant from NUT master branch.

Clone https://github.com/hassio-addons/addon-nut.git into the addons folder and change nut/Dockerfile to:

ARG BUILD_FROM=ghcr.io/hassio-addons/debian-base/amd64:4.2.0
# hadolint ignore=DL3006
FROM ${BUILD_FROM} as builder

# Setup builder
# hadolint ignore=DL3003

    && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \
       build-essential \

       libneon27-dev \

RUN git clone https://github.com/networkupstools/nut.git \
    && cd nut \

You can likely update to the latest base image, I haven't gotten around to it yet and it's been working just fine. I haven't changed any other values or labels as I haven't published it anywhere. It should then show up as a local addon and you can build it. You may also need to change it obviously if you are using a different arch.

Later discussion in #590 suggested this example Dockerfile for the integration: https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/files/7525735/Dockerfile.txt
