Rework master startup/shutdown/failover

This (big) patch reworks the master startup/shutdown and the fixes the

Use pidfiles in example init script

Rather than searching for the ganeti daemons by name we'll use the
pidfile they create to stop them. This change also adds the --oknodo
option to start-stop-daemon when stopping ganeti (which means it won't
give an error if it wasn't started)....

Use a single Makefile.am instead of many

This change allows us to use cleaner dependencies between
