   Exercising the event.* capabilities is trivial, but asserting that these calls succeeded is not.

   The metal-maintenance-operator relies on a ConfigMap configured via the telemetry-config-name-flag that contains a yaml-based configuration of how events are subscribed to, e.g.:

   apiVersion: telemetry.metal.ironcore.dev/v1alpha1
   subscriptionReconcileInterval: 10s
   perBMCTimeout: 30s
   testEventInterval: 1m
   testEventTimeout: 30s
   eventBasedHardware:
     - vendor: "Dell Inc."
       models:
         - "Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009)"
       testMessageId: "TestEventId"
       testSeverity: "OK"
       testOriginOfCondition: "/redfish/v1/Managers/1"

   Subscription happens in a reconciler for BMC resources (owned by the metal-operator!) in the maintenance-operator. If some of the necessary calls fail(https://github.com/ironcore-dev/metal-maintenance-operator/blob/0cd8b31a719813cdca2f278dfbbcec2fd5ee1815/internal/telemetry/subscriptions/reconciler.go#L369), errors are not surfaced in any way.
   From the test-framework's perspective, to assert that these subscriptions happen, the test would need to call the BMC's Redfish API manually and confirm subscriptions.

   I'm adding an implementation without the necessary verification I mentioned: #78

   The verification is a work in progress tracked here: https://github.com/simontesar/metal-operator-test-framework/compare/test-13-event-subscriptions-verification?expand=1

   Testing against a physical iDRAC with non-virtualised BMC, I found that it refuses to push metrics to a plain HTTP endpoint. I'll extend the metal-lab to support a proxy in front of it.
