Omer 6a5c39c257 Refactor Tobiko configuration guide
So far, the Tobiko docs were duplicated in some places, different
(although duplicated), and some fragments were not relevant (or
outdated).

This patch refactors the Tobiko configuration guide by modularizing
the fragments ("spilling" fragments instead of coping them),
correcting typos, and deleting/updating irrelevant information.

Skipping resources creation

In some cases, for example when Tobiko is run after an upgrade of a cloud, it may be expected that resources used for tests have already been created. Tobiko should not try to create resources than and just run tests using what has already been created. To configure Tobiko to not create test resources, the environment variable TOBIKO_PREVENT_CREATE can be used:

export TOBIKO_PREVENT_CREATE=True

If this is set to True or 1 then Tobiko will not try to create resources like VMs, networks, routers, or images and just run validations of what exists in the cloud already.
