[Bug 1228433] [NEW] nova-compute needs sysfsutils package moved to depends

[gdahlman]

Public bug reported:

nova-compute does not require the sysfsutils package but it needs the
systool command in order to attach volumes to an instance.

The package is currently in "Suggests:"  but it really should be in
"Depends:" as it is a more critical need as cinder's role grows.
