This is recommended by the Python Requests documentation:
> It’s a good practice to set connect timeouts to slightly larger than a
multiple of 3, which is the default TCP packet retransmission window.
This allows us to keep a very low connect timeout of 3 seconds, but also
ensure that long commands (e.g. --wait or VM disable) can take as long
as the API requires to complete.
Avoids having to explicitly set very long single-instance timeouts for
other functions which would block forever on an unreachable API.
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.
Allows preserving colour within e.g. watch, where Click would normally
determine that it is "not a terminal". This is done via the wrapper echo
which filters via the local config.
Remove the prepare script, and run the two stages manually. Better
handle Black reformatting by doing a check (for the errcode) then
reformat and abort commit to review.
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.

Make sure all of these move to the root of the repository first, then
return to where they were afterwards, using pushd/popd. This allows them
to be executed from anywhere in the repo.
Instead of erroring, just use the implication that restarting a VM does
not want a live modification, and proceed from there. Update the help
text to match.
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.
