It didn't make any sense to me for mem(prov) to be the default selector,
since this has too many caveats versus mem(free). Switch to using
mem(free) as the default (i.e. "mem") and make memprov the alternative.
1. Ensure that system_template and script are not nullable in the DB.
2. Ensure that the CLI and API enforce the above and clean up CLI
arguments for profile add.
3. Ensure that, before uploading OVAs, a 'default_ova' provisioning
script is present.
4. Use the 'default_ova' script for new OVA uploads.
5. Ensure that OVA details are properly added to the vm_data dict in the
provisioner vmbuilder.
1. Add documentation on the node selector flags. In the API, reference
the daemon configuration manual which now includes details in this
section; in the CLI, provide the help in "pvc vm define" in detail and
then reference that command's help in the other commands that use this
field.
2. Ensure the naming is consistent in the CLI, using the flag name
"--node-selector" everywhere (was "--selector" for "pvc vm" commands and
"--node-selector" for "pvc provisioner" commands).
Adds commands to both replace an OSD disk, and refresh (reimport) an
existing OSD disk on a new node. This handles the cases where an OSD
disk should be replaced (either due to upgrades or failures) or where a
node is rebuilt in-place and an existing OSD must be re-imported to it.
This should avoid the need to do a full remove/add sequence for either
case.
Also cleans up some aspects of OSD removal that are identical between
methods (e.g. using safe-to-destroy and sleeping after stopping) and
fixes a bug if an OSD does not truly exist when the daemon starts up.
Allows an administrator to adjust the PG count of a given pool. This can
be used to increase the PGs (for example after adding more OSDs) or
decrease it (to remove OSDs, reduce CPU load, etc.).
Allows specifying a particular device class ("tier") for a given pool,
for instance SSD-only or NVMe-only. This is implemented with Crush
rules on the Ceph side, and via an additional new key in the pool
Zookeeper schema which is defaulted to "default".
Allows specifying blockdevs in the OSD and OSD-DB addition commands as
detect strings rather than actual block device paths. This provides
greater flexibility for automation with pvcbootstrapd (which originates
the concept of detect strings) and in general usage as well.
The Ansible manual can't keep up with the other repo, so it should live
there instead (eventually, after significant rewrites).
The Testing page is obsoleted by the "test-cluster" script.
Instead of requiring the VM to already be stopped, instead allow disable
state changes to perform a shutdown first. Also add a force option which
will do a hard stop instead of a shutdown.

Use a power off (and then make the power on a requirement) during a node
fence. Removes some potential ambiguity in the power state, since we
will know for certain if it is off.
Update the docs with the current information on setting up a cluster,
including simplifying the Ansible configuration to use the new
create-local-repo.sh script, and simplifying some other sections.
