Fixes #38549 - Add WOL capability to Host
The feature adds the ability to wake suspended Host by Wake on LAN. It requires a smart proxy with WOL feature.
Typically, when host has a network interface attached to a subnet where we manage the DHCP, the broadcast in such network is available. That's due to the core principle of DHCP protocol. In such network, it's possible to perform WOL, which also relies on broadcast. This patch adds WOL support for Host's primary interface as that's the one we run the DHCP orchestration on. This could be extended in future if we see the need to specify other host interface instead.
The Host's API loads the primary interface, checks the presence of the DHCP proxy and it's WOL capability. If it is available, it triggers the relevant API on the smart proxy and displays a toast notification.
This new action reuses the same permission we have for BMC (power management of the host).
