[PATCH] VirtualBox power mngt

[Blake Rouse]

Erwan,

First I would like to thank you for your interest in MAAS and getting it to
work with VirtualBox. We would be interested in accepting this patch, but
our development process requires some steps on your part to get this landed.

1. A launchpad account.
The core MAAS project is developed at http://launchpad.net/maas. If you
already have a launchpad account then great, if not please create one at
https://launchpad.net/+login.

2. Signed contributes agreement.
The Canonical contributes agreement must be signed before we can accept
your merge request. So go ahead and agree to this before going forward.

3. A bazaar branch.
Currently MAAS is developed with bazaar. So you will want to pull the MAAS
source code and make your changes locally in the branch and then push the
changes to launchpad.

$ sudo apt update && sudo apt install bzr
$ bzr launchpad-login
$ bzr branch lp:maas
$ cd maas
... apply your patches ...
$ bzr commit -m "Add virtual box power driver."
$ bzr push lp:~{your-launchpad-username}/maas/add-vbox-driver

4. Propose the branch.
Once you have pushed the branch then you can propose it to be merged into
trunk.

$ bzr lp-open

Will open a web browser with your new branch. Click the "Propose for
merging" button and provide a commit message.

Overall the code change looks like a good start. The biggest missing piece
is the unit tests for this change. You will need to add unit tests for this
new driver. Look at the other drivers for examples on how to unit test this
new driver.

Looking forward to working with you to get your patches landed in upstream
MAAS, and any future patches to MAAS!

Thanks,
Blake Rouse
