Feature: cibadmin: allow altering status section without triggering r…#4147

…efresh As since ec65417 there is no tool available anymore to modify the status section adding the switch --update-status. Instead of reverting to behavior before the commit above this approach doesn't introduce potentially unintentional behavioral changes. When used, cibadmin registers with the CIB as "cibadmin_status" (a safe client name), so the controller does not trigger an election and join refresh that would overwrite the status changes. This was triggered by pcs feature that allows altering fence_scsi devices without resource restart by updating the digests in already recorded actions in the status section. (Jira Issue RHEL-70283)
