Kaifeng Wang d379357cad Introduce configuration option [ipmi]ipmi_disable_timeout
Some type of BMCs don't support an IPMI option that disable the
behavior of boot device timeout, which makes them never get booted
from PXE.

This patch extends the fix [1] by adding a configuration option,
which provides the default ipmi behavior.

Additionally revising the variable/setting names based upon review
feedback and discussion that took place during the 20181210 weekly
ironic team meeting.

Adds a configuration option ``[ipmi]disable_boot_timeout`` which is used
to set the default behavior whether ironic should send a raw IPMI command
to disable timeout. This configuration option can be overidden by the
per-node option ``ipmi_disable_boot_timeout`` in node's ``driver_info``
field.
