This patch takes a modified version of the Ubuntu 14.04 housekeeping
service script and uses it in Docker to validate the current version.
To disable the version validation, pass the --disable-version-check flag
when running the container.

This change allows for seamless migration of the legacy users metadata
to the new role-based metadata tables. This process is summarized in
`docs/migrating-from-users-to-roles.md`.
In general, if any nondefault metadata exists in the new tables, then
no migration happens. If, in this case, legacy metadata still exists
then a warning is written to the log.
If no nondefault metadata exists in the new tables and the legacy tables
exist, then each node will copy the data from the legacy tables to the
new tables, performing transformations as necessary. An informational
message is written to the log when the migration process starts, and
when the process ends. During the process of copying, data is
overwritten so that multiple nodes racing to migrate data do not
conflict.
Since Apache Cassandra's auth. schema uses the same table for managing
roles and authentication information, some useful functions in
`roles-metadata.hh` have been added to avoid code duplication.
Because a superuser should be able to drop the legacy users tables from
`system_auth` once the cluster has migrated to roles and is functioning
correctly, we remove the restriction on altering anything in the
"system_auth" keyspace. Individual tables in `system_auth` are still
protected later in the function.
When a cluster is upgrading from one that does not support roles to one
that does, some nodes will be running old code which accesses old
metadata and some will be running new code which access new metadata.
With the help of the gossiper `feature` mechanism, clients connecting to
upgraded nodes will be notified (through code in the relevant CQL
statements) that modifications are not allowed until the entire cluster
has upgraded.
Hinted Handoff is a feature that allows replaying failed writes.
The mutation and the destination replica are saved in a log and replayed
later according to the feature configuration.

Using --hostname to give the container a meaningful name is a good
practice, and make the monitoring dashboard easier to understand

Glauber "eagle eyes" Costa pointed out that the Scylla logo used in our
Docker image documentation looks broken because it's missing the Scylla
text.
Fix the problem by using the Scylla mascot instead.

The bug tracker URL in our Docker image documentation is not clickable
because the URL Markdown extracts automatically is broken.
Fix that and add some more links on how to get help and report issues.

Fix Docker Hub documentation to match what we have right now.
More work is needed in the following areas:
* How to make a cluster
* How to configure Docker image for production use
