    [WIP] Don't start review yet -- CLOUDSTACK-9299: Out-of-band Management for CloudStack

    Support access to a host’s out-of-band management interface (e.g. IPMI, iLO,
    DRAC, etc.) to manage host power operations (on/off etc.) and querying current
    power state in CloudStack.
    
    Given the wide range of out-of-band management interfaces such as iLO and iDRA,
    the service implementation allows for development of separate drivers as plugins.
    This feature comes with a ipmitool based driver that uses the
    ipmitool (http://linux.die.net/man/1/ipmitool) to communicate with any
    out-of-band management interface that support IPMI 2.0.
    
    This feature allows following common use-cases:
    - Restarting stalled/failed hosts
    - Powering off under-utilised hosts
    - Powering on hosts for provisioning or to increase capacity
    - Allowing system administrators to see the current power state of the host
    
    For testing this feature `ipmisim` can be used:
    https://pypi.python.org/pypi/ipmisim
