[Bug 1289178] Re: MAAS packages should also pull in the tools necessary for power control

[dann frazier]

MAAS does not pull in ipmitool by default (it is a "Suggests", due to
ipmitool being in universe). While I understand that we can't add a
strict dependency w/o including ipmitool in main, I do think it is an
issue that it can cause MAAS to silently fail to work. IMO, there should
minimally be some notification in the UI that warns a user when the
tools required for a certain power type are not installed.
