Prevent user from starting initial partition and pmgservers

Reiner Hauser requested to merge (removed):master into master

See ADHI-4880 for discussion.

Two commits for the two changes:

  1. Do not start the initial partition automatically if it is not running. It has to be specified explicitly as the partition argument. Also no option, otherwise people just start using it by habit.

That means it is one more shell command for experts, and easy to add to scripts where required.

  1. Do not start pmgservers from setup_daq if not requested. Rather than figuring out where we are and what to do, let the user decide with the new -P flag.

This is not fool proof, as the user may intend to start pmgservers on his local machine, but there is a pmgserver on one of the testbed machines not responding - which is then also started...
