Daniel Hilst a6212e8384 fix(xcat-core): makentp and the NTP selector disagree on when chrony is usable ...

xCAT::NTP::Backend->available reported chrony as available on chronyd alone, while makentp
configured chrony only where systemctl was present too. On a host with chronyd and no systemctl
the selector returned chrony with no downgrade, makentp fell through to the ntpd path, and the
admin saw either a silent switch or "Please make sure ntpd is installed".

available now requires chronyd and systemctl for chrony, so the selector answers on the same
terms makentp acts on, and makentp branches on the name alone. choose therefore downgrades to
ntpd, or reports install, in the case it used to pass over. A commands argument injects the
command probe, in the same shape as the existing available argument.

ntp_backend_selection.t covers both commands. Six of its assertions fail without this change.
