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.
When using the "state", "node", or "tag" arguments to a VM list, add
support for a "negate" flag to look for all VMs *not in* the state,
node, or tag state.
Adds a test_format database column and a value in the API return for the
test format version, starting at 0 for the existing format as of 0.9.37.
References #143
The default of 0.05 (5%) is likely ideal in the initial implementation,
but allow this to be set explicitly for maximum flexibility in
space-constrained or performance-critical use-cases.
Adds in three parts:
1. Create an API endpoint to create OSD DB volume groups on a device.
Passed through to the node via the same command pipeline as
creating/removing OSDs, and creates a volume group with a fixed name
(osd-db).
2. Adds API support for specifying whether or not to use this DB volume
group when creating a new OSD via the "ext_db" flag. Naming and sizing
is fixed for simplicity and based on Ceph recommendations (5% of OSD
size). The Zookeeper schema tracks the block device to use during
removal.
3. Adds CLI support for the new and modified API endpoints, as well as
displaying the block device and DB block device in the OSD list.
While I debated supporting adding a DB device to an existing OSD, in
practice this ended up being a very complex operation involving stopping
the OSD and setting some options, so this is not supported; this can be
specified during OSD creation only.
Closes#142
