Add a command to the node section to trigger a manual fence. To implement, have this set the node to dead state and let the rest of the system take over. Will probably need a way to work around the saving throws and just immediately trigger it.

Some additional functionality might be useful, including:

Reload: trigger a hot reload (similar to the schema manager hot reload)
Restart: trigger a full daemon restart
Fence: trigger a node fence against the node manually

Perhaps expand this to add a few more node management commands, for instance a restart of the daemon or even a reboot of the node.

I think the useful commands would be:

pvc node reload to trigger a hot reload of the PVC node daemon.
pvc node reboot to trigger a sudo reboot of the node, going through the flush procedure too.
pvc node shutdown to trigger a sudo poweroff of the node, going through the flush procedure too.
pvc node fence to trigger an immediate fence of the node by another node.

I think the useful commands would be: 1. `pvc node reload` to trigger a hot reload of the PVC node daemon. 2. `pvc node reboot` to trigger a `sudo reboot` of the node, going through the flush procedure too. 3. `pvc node shutdown` to trigger a `sudo poweroff` of the node, going through the flush procedure too. 4. `pvc node fence` to trigger an immediate fence of the node by another node.

After another solid year of use, I've found very few situations where these commands would be particularly useful, though they still might be nice to have.

Implementing them shouldn't be particularly difficult.

Adding ansible support in #160 would pretty much obsolete this, since management should be done at a cluster level.
