[ClusterLabs] Goodbye crm_report?

Hi all,

Pacemaker's crm_report tool collects cluster information for debugging,
especially helpful for upstream or commercial support investigations.

The external sosreport tool has plugins for ClusterLabs software,
providing a more familiar and generic interface for the same
functionality. sosreport is readily available in many distros including
Fedora, RHEL, SUSE, Debian, Ubuntu, and similar.

We are thinking of merging what is still useful from the old and creaky
crm_report code into the sosreport plugins, and deprecating crm_report.

Does anyone have any strong emotional attachment to keeping crm_report
around? :-) It would remain available for a long transition period to
give time for the updated sosreport plugins to make their way into
distros and for higher-level tools and user scripts to be updated.
