Add '--smp', '--memory', and '--overprovisioned' options to the Docker
image. The options are written to /etc/scylla.d/docker.conf file, which
is picked up by the Scylla startup scripts.
You can now, for example, restrict your Docker container to 1 CPU and 1
GB of memory with:
$ docker run --name some-scylla penberg/scylla --smp 1 --memory 1G --overprovisioned 1
Needed by folks who want to run Scylla on Docker in production.

"Kubernetes is unhappy with our Docker image because we start systemd
under the hood. Fix that by switching to use "supervisord" to manage the
two processes -- "scylla" and "scylla-jmx":
http://blog.kunicki.org/blog/2016/02/12/multiple-entrypoints-in-docker/
While at it, fix up "docker logs" and "docker exec cqlsh" to work
out-of-the-box, and update our documentation to match what we have.
Further work is needed to ensure Scylla production configuration works
as expected and is documented accordingly."
(cherry picked from commit 28ee2bdbd2)
Previously, the Docker image could only be run interactively, which is
not conducive for running clusters. This patch makes the docker image
run in the background (using systemd). This makes the docker workflow
similar to working with virtual machines, i.e. the user launches a
container, and once it is running they can connect to it with
docker exec -it <container_name> bash
and immediately use `cqlsh` to control it.
In addition, the configuration of scylla is done using established
scripts, such as `scylla_dev_mode_setup`, `scylla_cpuset_setup` and
`scylla_io_setup`, whereas previously code from these scripts was
duplicated into the docker startup file.
To specify seeds for making a cluster, use the --seeds command line
argument, e.g.
docker run -d --privileged scylladb/scylla
docker run -d --privileged scylladb/scylla --seeds 172.17.0.2
other options include --developer-mode, --cpuset, --broadcast-address
The --developer-mode option mode is on by default - so that we don't fail users
who just want to play with this.
The Dockerfile entrypoint script was rewritten as a few Python modules.
The move to Python is meritted because:
* Using `sed` to manipulate YAML is fragile
* Lack of proper command line parsing resulted in introducing ad-hoc environment variables
* Shell scripts don't throw exceptions, and it's easy to forget to check exit codes for every single command
I've made an effort to make the entrypoint `go' script very simple and readable.
The goary details are hidden inside the other python modules.

(cherry picked from commit d1d1be4c1a)
Scylla will not start if the disk was not benchmarked
so start run io_tune with the right parameters.
Also add the cpu_set environment variables for passing
cpu set to iotune and scylla.

This variable if set to true will activate
developer mode. It will be set by using the
-e option of docker run.
The xfs bind mount behavior and the cpuset behavior
will be set by using the relevant docker command
lines options and documented in the scylla/docker
howto.

Make the Docker image more user-friendly by starting up JMX proxy in the
background and install Scylla tools in the image. Also add a welcome
banner like we have with our AMI so that users have pointers to nodetool
and cqlsh, as well as our documentation.

The default shell in Ubuntu is "dash" which causes the following error
when "scylla-start" script is executed:
/start-scylla: 8: /start-scylla: source: not found

Switch to CentOS 7 as the Docker base image. It's more stable and
updated less frequently than Fedora. As a bonus, it's Thrift package
doesn't pull the world as a dependency which reduces image size from 700
MB to 380 MB.

The Fedora base image has changed so we need to add "hostname" that's
used by the Docker-specific launch script to our image.
Fixes Scylla startup.

Add a Dockerfile for building a ScyllaDB Docker image. The image is
based on Fedora 22 and ScyllaDB is installed from our RPM repository.
