John Eckersberg 833e3baeb3 rabbitmq: set cluster_partition_handling to 'ignore'
The pause_minority strategy tends to cause more problems than it
solves.  If a partition is brief enough that no nodes are fenced, the
pausing and unpausing of minority nodes (especially during a partial
partition) frequently causes rabbitmq to crash in odd ways consistent
with race conditions.

By ignoring partitions, we will tolerate brief partitions better.
Longer partitions will be handled via fencing, which does not suffer
from race conditions when pausing/unpausing nodes.

Changes the default RabbitMQ partition handling strategy from
'pause_minority' to 'ignore', avoiding crashes due to race
conditions with nodes starting and stopping concurrently.
