Improve error message in ipactl
If a hostname configured in /etc/ipa/default.conf is changed and is different from the one stored in LDAP in cn=ipa,cn=etc,$SUFFIX ipactl gives an unintelligible error. This patch improves the error message and also offers a list of configured master so that the hostname setting in IPA configuration can be easily fixed. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1558
