Title:
  baremetal API extension does not show important status information

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The baremetal API extension require administrator privileges to use
  it, but it does not expose the information that an administrator will
  need, such as the task state.

  Here is what the database stores for a node with an active deployment.

  ubuntu@foo:~$ mysql nova_bm -e "select * from bm_nodes where uuid='dda8bd00-0cf6-4211-8c8c-81dfafe8c1fb'\G"

  Here is what the API exposes for the same node.

  At a minimum, I believe the API should also expose the uuid, task_state, and updated fields. Including the pxe_config_path would help system admins troubleshoot some problems as well.
