Allows configuring IPMI cipher suite via the new ``driver_info``
parameter ``ipmi_cipher_suite`` to enable operators to navigate
``ipmitool`` behavior changes around supported ciphers.
issues:
- Some ``ipmitool`` builds, in particular on machines running
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.2, have changed the default cipher suite
being offered which can cause ``ipmitool`` to completely fail to
negotiate a connection with the BMC. Operators who encounter this
situation should use the ``ipmi_cipher_suite`` parameter in the
``driver_info`` field to override and directly assert the required
cipher. Because of potential security implications of attempting
second level auto-negotiation and known BMC vendor behaviors,
this must be identified by the operator and explicitly set as
logic to attempt to navigate through situations like this may
have undesirable results.
