If pcmk_host_check is specified, it is used;

otherwise, if pcmk_host_list and/or pcmk_host_map are specified,
pcmk_host_check=static-list;

otherwise, if the device supports the list or status commands,
pcmk_host_check=dynamic-list;

otherwise, pcmk_host_check=none.

If pcmk_host_check=none, all devices can fence all nodes (i.e. if you
explicitly specify none, pcmk_host_list/pcmk_host_map are ignored);

otherwise, if pcmk_host_check=static-list, the values of pcmk_host_list
and/or pcmk_host_map are allowed targets (i.e. they combine if both are
specified, though that would be poor practice as it's confusing to read);

otherwise, the device is queried (i.e. static and dynamic never combine).
