[IPP] New Cloud-related operations for IPP System Service

Hi Mike,

For operation (3) DeregisterOutputDevice, I was thinking of the case
where a running service (Print in the near term) crashes (and this is
noticed by System Service, let us hope).  If DeregisterOutputDevice
is (redundantly) supported by the System Service, then an Administrator
could do the cleanup for the Infrastructure Printer (who might queue
jobs).

Or, I'm crazy, and the System Service would automatically do this
cleanup internally and no external operation needs to be exposed.
But that risks a Deregister when the crashed service can be
successfully automatically restarted by the System Service after
a brief interval of unavailability.

I have mixed feelings about the reliability (and advisability) of
automatic recovery by the System Service for crashed or stalled
Job Services.

WDYT?

Cheers,
- Ira
