Clark Boylan 0f4b0fae64 Redo slave manifests for clarity and correctness. 
The differences between openstack_project::slave,
openstack_project::slave_template, and openstack_project::bare_slave
were not always clear. Keep openstack_project::slave as the default long
running slave manifest, but replace slave_template with a
single_use_slave.pp to make it clear where single use slave config
begins. Add the ability to toggle automatic upgrades and jenkins sudo
rights to this new manifest. Finally, add a more verbose comment to
bare_slave explaining what it is useful for (having a jenkins like slave
host that doesn't need a firewall or ntp or automatic upgrades).

Overview

Once per day, for every image type (and provider) configured by nodepool, a new image with cached data for use by devstack. Nodepool spins up new instances and tears down old as tests are queued up and completed, always maintaining a consistant number of available instances for tests up to the set limits of the CI infrastructure.
