[openstack-dev] [Fuel] Separate master node provisioning and deployment

For the package-based deployment, we need to get rid of 'deployment script'
whatsoever. All configuration stuff should be done in package specs, or by
the user later on (maybe via some fuelmenu-like lightweight UI, or via
WebUI).

Thus, fuel package must install everything that is required for running
base Fuel as it's dependencies (or dependencies of it's dependencies, as it
could be more complicated with cross-deps between our components).
