Ryan McCabe 7f6798916a fence_virtd: Remove checkpoint, replace it with a CPG only plugin
Remove the checkpoint backend plugin, as it used CMAN and openais
checkpoints. Given nobody is using CMAN or openais anymore, the plugin
was useless for clusters running the current stack.

.SH NAME
fence_virtd - Fencing host for virtual machines
.SH DESCRIPTION
.P
fence_virtd is a host daemon designed to route fencing requests for
virtual machines.
Fence_virt and fence_xvm talk to fence_virtd, which supports multiple backend plugins, including:
- libvirt for single-node operation
- Corosync CPG and libvirt when using Linux-cluster release 3.0.0 or later
- libvirt-qpid for multi-node, non-cluster operation
For compatibility, fence_xvm from linux-cluster release 2 may talk to fence_virtd.
.P
fence_virtd accepts a few options on the command line, but most options
are read from fence_virt.conf.
