Title:
   Don't suppress the shutdown menu on LTSP clients

Status in mate-panel package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in mate-panel source package in Xenial:
  New

Bug description:
  I've already reported this upstream, but I'd like to SRU it to 16.04
  after it's fixed upstream.

  This (https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-
  panel/commit/8c25e1bdd328a8712735c0b00cf4aede7993da1d) commit, 9 years
  ago, aimed at hiding the shutdown menu on LTSP clients, because they
  were remote sessions to the LTSP server, and we didn't want remote
  users to shut down the server by accident.

  Nowadays it prevents LTSP fat clients from shutting down. Fat clients is the recommended LTSP setup, and they run the session locally on the client, so having a shutdown button there is required.
  As for thin clients, preventing server shutdown is taken care of by policykit, there's no need to check for an environment variable in the MATE code (btw I'm an LTSP developer).

  So, I'd like to ask you to please revert commit 8c25e1b.

  [Test Case]
  Log in to an LTSP client running Ubuntu MATE.
  Enable the Redmond menu, where the shutdown menu should be shown.
  Verify that the shutdown menu is missing, and that it's displayed when the commit is reverted.
