Introduce shred_final_overwrite_with_zeros, a new configuration option to control whether devices will receive a final overwrite with zeros during cleaning. Additionally, rename erase_devices_iterations to shred_random_overwrite_iterations to clarify the true meaning of this configuration option. Also, ensure a warning is raised in the logs to raise awareness around the potential security risk of running cleaning with iterations=0 and overwrite_with_zeros=False.

Ironic
Ironic is an integrated OpenStack project which aims to provision bare metal machines instead of virtual machines, forked from the Nova Baremetal driver. It is best thought of as a bare metal hypervisor API and a set of plugins which interact with the bare metal hypervisors. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI together to provision and turn on/off machines, but Ironic also supports vendor-specific plugins which may implement additional functionality.
