So the work with the UDI might be done in the shell script
hal-system-killswitch-?et-power, so that ipwWirelessCtl is invoked with the
device name to shut down!
this could be done through info.parent as in the C code by dragoran, but in bash

This is, in my opinion, good for now.
I might have done an error in the setrkfill code portion in
hal-system-killswitch-set-power-linux:
I think that the variable "$value" is passed by someone to the script, since it
is used in the first lines, but I don't know if value=1 means rfkill=1 or
rfkill=0...
