This patch adds a new external event called "power-update" through which ironic will convey all (power_off and power_on) power state changes (running -> shutdown or shutdown -> running will be the only ones handled by nova and the rest will be ignored) on a physical instance to nova. The database will be updated accordingly to reflect the real vm_state and power_state of the instance. This way nova will not be able to enforce an incorrect power state on the physical instance during the periodic "sync_power_states" task.
