Code Issues Proposed changes

Add smartmontools package to DIB image

Browse Source 
This package includes smartctl, which is necessary for ATA secure erase
disk cleaning.

Without this package, IPA will fall back to shredding ATA devices, and
you will lose hours of your life. Worse, until
https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/ironic-python-agent/+/847591, the
lack of smartctl was silently ignored.
