Crap, didn't realize I just had to restart vdsm for the new API.py to take
effect.
Anyway I edited fencing.py and added back the compatibility code, and its
all working for now.
I'm going to work on touch up changes on fence_raritan so that we can get
it submitted into the next release hopefully, all of these other hacks will
become moot at that time.
