Shutdown scripts

Define scripts that are executed on machine poweroff.
Those scripts are ordered, one by line, and relative to SYSVOL/scripts/ubuntu/ directory.
Scripts from this GPO will be appended to the list of scripts referenced higher in the GPO hierarchy.

- Key: /shutdown

Note: -
* Enabled: The scripts in the text entry are executed at shutdown time.

The set of scripts are per boot, and refreshed only on new boot of the machine.
