Seems like a reasonable work around for now and does not install a database server (the enabled services list seems to do that). If the intended behavior is to not need to set DATABASE_TYPE we should probably revert the devstack change then update devstack-gate's compute node localrc generation to remove DATABASE_TYPE so that breakage of the behavior has a chance of being caught early.
