Fix multiple issues with MariaDB handling

These affected both deploy (and reconfigure) and upgrade
resulting in WSREP issues, failed deploys or need to
recover the cluster.

This patch makes sure k-a does not abruptly terminate
nodes to break cluster.
This is achieved by cleaner separation between stages
(bootstrap, restart current, deploy new) and 3 phases
for restarts (to keep the quorum).

Upgrade actions, which operate on a healthy cluster,
went to its section.

Service restart was refactored.

We no longer rely on the master/slave distinction as
all nodes are masters in Galera.

+    Fixes MariaDB issues in multinode scenarios which affected

+    They were usually manifested by WSREP issues in various places
+    and could lead to need to recover the Galera cluster.
+    Note these issues were due to how MariaDB was handled during
+    Kolla Ansible runs and did not affect Galera cluster during normal
+    operations unless MariaDB was later touched by Kolla Ansible.
+    Users wishing to run actions on their Galera clusters using
+    Kolla Ansible are strongly advised to update.
