This patch is modifying the shutdown.sh script to not use SYSRQ when
performing power actions. SYSRQ has a similar effect to a hardware reset
button/power switch, which can be problematic after copying an image to
the disk (data loss) therefore, this patch is changing the script to use
soft power action via the poweroff and reboot commands.
SYSRQ was required before because the ironic-python-agent service was
running inside a docker container, but since we've moved it to run into
a chroot (when built with coreos) or on the ramdisk's OS (when built
with DIB) the SYSRQ actions are not needed anymore.
In many parts of Ironic we were considering the standby.{power_off,
reboot} methods of IPA to be soft actions, which they are not at
present. This patch is also fixing that assumption.

ironic-python-agent
An agent for controlling and deploying Ironic controlled baremetal nodes.
The ironic-python-agent works with the agent driver in Ironic to provision the node. Starting with ironic-python-agent running on a ramdisk on the unprovisioned node, Ironic makes API calls to ironic-python-agent to provision the machine. This allows for greater control and flexibility of the entire deployment process.
The ironic-python-agent may also be used with the original Ironic pxe drivers as of the Kilo OpenStack release.
Building the IPA deployment ramdisk
For more information see the Image Builder section of the Ironic Python Agent developer guide.
Using IPA with devstack
This is covered in the Deploying Ironic with DevStack section of the Ironic dev-quickstart guide.
