Extend mbed-cloud-client-example with additional functionality

DISCO-L475VG-IOT01A board has many sensors built-in. Try to add new resource in main.cpp that exposes a value from a single resource. Read that value in Pelione Device Management Portal.

Avilable sensors:

Hint1: Additional libraries may need to be added. To add a library click plus button in Libraries panel:

Hint2: https://os.mbed.com/teams/ST/code/HelloWorld_ST_Sensors/ may be useful.
