[openstack-dev] [Fuel] Task Based Deployment Is at Least Twice Faster

Igor,

We are going to run a swarm test today against the ISO with enabled
task-based deployment, than check results and merge changes tomorrow.
I've run BVT more than 100 times, it works, but I would like to check more
deployment cases.
And I guess it should be easy to troubleshoot if docker-related and
task-based related changes will be separated by a few days.
