[ClusterLabs] required nodes for quorum policy

[Radoslaw Garbacz]

Thank you Christine and Andrei,

I took a look at the corosync quorum policy configuration options, and
actually I would need a more conservative approach, i.e. to consider quorum
only if all the nodes are present - any node loss is a quorum loss event
for me. At present I check it in an agent, but would be helpful if
pacemaker took care of this for me.

I know that it is not the requirement pacemaker was designed for (i.e. it
does not use the full power of this cluster environment), but for now the
application we use cannot handle any node loss.
