This adds a `nomad alloc stop` command that can be used to stop and
force migrate an allocation to a different node.
This is built on top of the AllocUpdateDesiredTransitionRequest and
explicitly limits the scope of access to that transition to expose it
under the alloc-lifecycle ACL.
The API returns the follow up eval that can be used as part of
monitoring in the CLI or parsed and used in an external tool.
Currently when operators need to log onto a machine where an alloc
is running they will need to perform both an alloc/job status
call and then a call to discover the node name from the node list.
This updates both the job status and alloc status output to include
the node name within the information to make operator use easier.

IOPS have been modelled as a resource since Nomad 0.1 but has never
actually been detected and there is no plan in the short term to add
detection. This is because IOPS is a bit simplistic of a unit to define
the performance requirements from the underlying storage system. In its
current state it adds unnecessary confusion and can be removed without
impacting any users. This PR leaves IOPS defined at the jobspec parsing
level and in the api/ resources since these are the two public uses of
the field. These should be considered deprecated and only exist to allow
users to stop using them during the Nomad 0.9.x release. In the future,
there should be no expectation that the field will exist.
This adds constraints for asserting that a given attribute or value
exists, or does not exist. This acts as a companion to =, or !=
operators, e.g:
```hcl
constraint {
attribute = "${attrs.type}"
operator = "!="
value = "database"
}
constraint {
attribute = "${attrs.type}"
operator = "is_set"
}
```
This commit allows the ConstraintChecker to test values that do not exist.
This is useful when wanting to _exclude_ given nodes from executing a
job, for example, if you wanted to give canary nodes an attribute, and
not run critical services on them, you may specify something like the
below, but not want to tag all other nodes with the inverse.
```hcl
constraint {
attribute = "${node.attr.canary}
operator = "!="
value = "1"
}
```
This also requires all constraint checkers to allow for nil target
values, as they will no longer be short circuited by resolving a target.
Also changes the logic for score when there is more than one task
requesting a device. Since inter task affinities are already normalized,
we take the average of the scores across tasks.
