Arch Linux

I have a Dell Latitude C400 laptop, and the idectl script that is in the hdparm source code is very useful for this laptop (and a few others). It'd be nice to install these two scripts by default with the rest of hdparm for users like myself. The hdparm package is also a few releases behind, so here's an updated PKGBUILD that also installs the scripts.
