JayF reminded us in IRC that, while rare, some environments out
there may have misconfigured clock and time zone settings.

Added a note to the release note to highlight this.

Adds a feature where IPA will utilize a ``[DEFAULT]ntp_server`` or
``ipa-ntp-server`` kernel command line argument to cause the agent
to attempt to sync the clock to the NTP source. The agent also attempts
to sync the software clock to the NTP time source, and assert an update
to the hardware clock prior to powering the machine off. Please note,
if your system clock is set to local time as opposed to UTC,
this may result in undesirable behavior.
