When filtering nodes by hostname in the API, have to use ".local" domain instead of the domain set for the cluster

[Jason Hobbs]

This is with 1.8.0.

My node's name shows up as "suangi.oil" in the UI, and in the API, but to find it in a filter via 'nodes list', I have to specify the hostname as 'suangi.local'. Neither 'suangi' nor 'suangi.oil' work. I would be fine with 'suangi' not working but 'suangi.oil' should definitely work.

ubuntu@doberman-dev:~/oil-ci+save-maas-install-logs/oil_ci/tests/test_data$ maas jason nodes list hostname=suangi.oil
Success.
Machine-readable output follows:
[]
ubuntu@doberman-dev:~/oil-ci+save-maas-install-logs/oil_ci/tests/test_data$ maas jason nodes list hostname=suangi
Success.
Machine-readable output follows:

    }
]

On trunk MAAS only returns the host if you only include the hostname, including any domain name or .local returns nothing.

$ maas maas nodes list hostname=maas-test-1.maas
Success.
Machine-readable output follows:
[]
$ maas maas nodes list hostname=maas-test-1.local
Success.
Machine-readable output follows:
[]
 maas maas nodes list hostname=maas-test-1
Success.
Machine-readable output follows:
[
    {
...
        "hostname": "maas-test-1.maas",
...
        "resource_uri": "/MAAS/api/1.0/nodes/node-b11c7fd8-3c66-11e5-9997-525400009441/"
    }
]

Why is this invalid?
