ironic: Pass on the capabilities in the flavor to the ironic virt driver's node

Registered by Nisha Agarwal

This blueprint proposes to pass on the capabilities to ironic node's instance_info field so that ironic can take appropriate actions.
Example : the capabilities like supported-boot-modes is defined as uefi in flavor, the selected node's instance info shall be updated with that capability. The ironic drivers can then boot the node in the requested boot mode i.e. the boot mode given in capabilities.
The same applies to other hardware capabilities too.
