Sharpz7 949387bd80 [codespell] Fixing Spelling Mistakes
This is the first in a series of commits to add support for codespell. This is continuning the process completed in ironic-python-agent.

Future Commits will add a Tox Target, CI support and potentially a git-blame-ignore-revs file if their are lots of spelling mistakes that could clutter git blame.

Kill ``ipmitool`` process invoked by ironic to read node's power state if
``ipmitool`` process does not exit after configured timeout expires. It
appears pretty common for ``ipmitool`` to run for five minutes (with
current ironic defaults) once it hits a non-responsive bare metal node.
This could slow down the management of other nodes due periodic tasks
slots exhaustion. The new behaviour could is enabled by default, but
could be disabled via the ``[ipmi]kill_on_timeout`` ironic configuration
option.
