Allow PI Adapter for MQTT (Generic) to process non-json payloads

Some MQTT devices do not send json payloads; for example, some devices send a single value as the payload for a specific topic. It would be beneficial for the adapter to be able to handle this rather than to convert these payloads into json before they get to the adapter.

    We would like to know more about the frequency in which our customers come across this scenario. Please share your use cases in the comments section.

    My sensors publish its data as "raw-value" to a topic.
    So e.g temperature is just a float 36.1 and not {"value":"36.1"}.
    Thus I'm not able to use the adapter for this sensor, because the adapter requires data as JSON.

    Spent 6 hours on a project where we needed data from a solar panel that was accessed through MQTT Adapter in the form of numerical values. We succeeded easily with integration with AVEVA Historian using the MQTT however kept failing with PI Adapter due to inability to find the items. After so much efforts and time spent we came across this enhancement request and figured we do not even support it. I hope it would be added soon just as it is already available and easily configurable with AVEVA Historian.

    In this use case the PI Adapter was proposed but devices are already in place and publishing raw data payloads to the MQTT broker so it is not feasible to change the data to JSON or Sparkplug. Workarounds to convert the data to Sparkplug increases the effort needs, and the costs involved.
