Dmitry Tantsur c403458a74 Configure cleaning parameters
Adds new parameter cleaning_disk_erase which, if set, configures
appropriate clean steps to achieve either full erasure, erasure of
disk metadata or no erasing actions.

Also allow configuring whether to fall back from hard disk shredding
if ATA secure erase fails for some reason.

Add new option ``ironic::conductor::cleaning_disk_erase`` for tweaking
how Ironic erases hard drive during cleaning. Possible values:
* *full* - erase all data on all hard drives using either ATA secure
erase or ``shred`` utility.
* *metadata* - erase only disk metadata on all hard drives, leaving
data intact.
* *none* - do not erase anything (only use it if you have other means
of erasing hard drives in place).
- Add new option ``ironic::conductor::continue_if_disk_secure_erase_fails``
which defines whether ironic should fall back to ``shred`` utility
if ATA secure erase is available, but fails in the process.
