As already presented, the links below will describe in details the
PowerChain notion:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerOneiricInfraPower
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerOneiricInfraPower#PowerChain%20design
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerOneiricInfraPower#PowerChain%20implementation

The idea here is to add a new variable, named 'device.parent', so that every
device can reference its parent.

I propose to add a new entry in docs/nut-names.txt, with the following
content:

| device.parent  | Reference to the parent node in the PowerChain (NUT host
format)         | ups1@localhost

A new chapter will be created in the user manual, to describe the usage of
this feature.

Note that there will be a separate mail to discuss implementation details.

Comments and feedback welcome...

cheers,
Arnaud
