To speed up deployments, we'll remove the healthcheck step.
This adds some risk to deployments for non-web roles - if they don't
have a Docker healthcheck configured then the only check we do is if
the container is running.
If there is a bad image we might see the container running before it
exits and deploy it. Previously the healthcheck step would have avoided
this by ensuring a web container could boot and serve traffic first.
To mitigate this, we'll add a deployment barrier. Until one of the
primary role containers passes its healthcheck, we'll keep the barrier
up and avoid stopping the containers on the non-primary roles.
It the primary role container fails its healthcheck, we'll close the
barrier and shut down the new containers on the waiting roles.
We also have a new integration test to check we correctly handle a
a broken image. This highlighted that SSHKit's default runner will
stop at the first error it encounters. We'll now have a custom runner
that waits for all threads to finish allowing them to clean up.
This includes a fix for a bug in the eviction thread that could cause
this error:
```
[ERROR (IOError): Exception while executing on host foo: closed stream]
```

Docker does not respect the .dockerignore file when building from a tar.
Instead by default we'll make a local clone into a tmp directory and
build from there. Subsequent builds will reset the clone to match the
checkout.
Compared to building directly in the repo, we'll have reproducible
builds.
Compared to using a git archive:
1. .dockerignore is respected
2. We'll have faster builds - docker can be smarter about caching the
build context on subsequent builds from a directory
To build from the repo directly, set the build context to "." in the
config.
If there are uncommitted changes, we'll warn about them either being
included or ignored depending on whether we build from the clone.
Allow hosts to be tagged so we can have host specific env variables.
We might want host specific env variables for things like datacenter
specific tags or testing GC settings on a specific host.
Right now you either need to set up a separate role, or have the app
be host aware.
Now you can define tag env variables and assign those to hosts.
For example:
```
servers:
- 1.1.1.1
- 1.1.1.2: tag1
- 1.1.1.2: tag2
- 1.1.1.3: [ tag1, tag2 ]
env_tags:
tag1:
ENV1: value1
tag2:
ENV2: value2
```
The tag env supports the full env format, allowing you to set secret and
clear values.
When ssh options are set, they overwrite username and password passed as ssh builder uri. Passing part of uri for ssh-kit is fine, as it then properly extracts username and password and forwards it as host.ssh_options (in which case it's no longer empty)
