Dear all

As you might know, `OS::Heat::HARestarter` been deprecate for really long
time. It never really restarts servers (only recreate them), and the code
(and logic) looks really old.
Would like to reach out all users to see if this resource still uses by
anyone.
If it's fine for all, I like to propose with [1] to hidden that resource
type and mark it as placeholder resource.
For resources already exists (which not a placeholder resource), still can
be deleted through the client. Any newly created resources will be
considered as placeholder resources like none resource. We will schedule to
delete it from heat resources list.

For users that really need this kind of feature, can also consider using
auto-healing like the sample template in [2]. Which IMO is way better than
HARestarter.
