If there are slow or unresponsive BMCs in the environment, the
``retry_timeout`` configuration option in the ``[ipmi]`` section may need
to be lowered. The default is fairly conservative, as setting this timeout
``command_retry_timeout`` configuration option in the ``[ipmi]`` section may
need to be lowered. The default is fairly conservative, as setting this timeout
too low can cause older BMCs to crash and require a hard-reset.

Configuration option IPMI.retry_timeout is deprecated in favor of new
options IPMI.command_retry_timeout, and
CONDUCTOR.power_state_change_timeout
Configuration option ``[ipmi]/retry_timeout`` is deprecated in favor of
these new options:
* ``[ipmi]/command_retry_timeout``: timeout value to wait for an IPMI
command to complete (be acknowledged by the baremetal node)
* ``[conductor]/power_state_change_timeout``: timeout value to wait for
a power operation to complete, so that the baremetal node is in the
desired new power state

Prevents the IPMI driver from needlessly checking status if the power
change action fails. Additionally stop retrying power actions and power
status polls if we receive a non-retryable error from ipmitool.
https//bugs.launchpad.net/ironic/+bug/1675529. New configuration option
`power_state_change_timeout` added to define how many seconds to wait for a
server to change power state when a power action is requested.
Prevents the IPMI driver from needlessly checking status of the baremetal
node if a power change action fails. Additionally, stops retrying power

https//bugs.launchpad.net/ironic/+bug/1675529. A new configuration option
``[conductor]/power_state_change_timeout`` can be used to specify how many
