[Bug 1868882] Re: [SRU] Put ipmctl into Bionic (and update necessary deps)

[Rafael David Tinoco]

So what we need here is:

# Eoan

- Backport of Focal ipmctl package to Eoan
  - includes ipmctl
  - includes libipmctl4

- Upload of this "new" package into Eoan Universe

# Bionic

- Backport of Focal ipmctl package to Bionic
  - includes ipmctl
  - includes libipmctl4

- Upload of this "new" package into Focal Universe

------

Small local build test:

(c)rafaeldtinoco at ipmctldev:~/work/sources/ubuntu$ ls -1 *.deb
ipmctl_02.00.00.3709+ds-1_amd64.deb
libipmctl4_02.00.00.3709+ds-1_amd64.deb
libipmctl-dev_02.00.00.3709+ds-1_amd64.deb

(c)rafaeldtinoco at ipmctldev:~/work/sources/ubuntu$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS
Release:        18.04
Codename:       bionic

(c)rafaeldtinoco at ipmctldev:~$ ipmctl
Intel(R) Optane(TM) DC Persistent Memory Command Line Interface

    Usage: ipmctl <verb>[<options>][<targets>][<properties>]

----

Questions:

- ndctl backport from Focal isn't really needed to build it (only a debhelper version change)
- are there any missing features in Bionic ndctl that disallow ipctl to work properly ?
- want me to provide a PPA for you to test it ?
