Installs javatana in vivid, emulates its on-login actions when starting
elasticsearch and verifies that elasticsearch turns off javatana.

This adds SuSe Linux Enterprise Server 12 to the list of tested VMs.
SLES 12 is using systemd, so that the current RPM works
out of the box.
SLES12 however is already quite old and does not ship with java8, so this
required adding an opensuse repo.
Removes an esoteric `apt-get update` variant used in Vagrantfile that was
causing only parts of the apt repository to update. That was the point of
the command but when it would leave the repository only half built which
made installing anything but Java difficult. The speed isn't worth the
complexity.
To do this we:
1. All the rpm based distros we test support Java 8. We just ask to install
it.
2. There is a ppa that works for the Ubuntus. We just add that for them.
3. Debian Jessie has Java 8 in its backports. We just add that repository.
4. Debian Wheezy doesn't have Java 8 easily accessible so we drop it. We
could add it back with Orache Java 8 at a later date but that will take a
few more backflips and won't support things like vagrant-cachier.
This required a ton of rebuilding of vagrant boxes so it also fixes:
1. apt-get update is run too frequently
2. Lots of weird warning messages are spit out of apt-get
3. Switch from the chef provided based images to those provided by boxcutter.
The chef images has left vagrant atlas!

Also a small amount of cleanup in the way we create VMs - just a bit less
repetition.
Prompts are always of the form "box:cwd$ ". Even for root. Which is ok because
you don't have to be that careful with root because these are VMs that you
can destroy and recreate quickly.
This creates a module in qa called vagrant that can be run if you have
vagrant and virtualbox installed and will run the packaging tests in trusty
and centos-7.0. You can ask it to run tests in other linuxes. This is the full
list:
* precise aka Ubuntu 12.04
* trusty aka Ubuntu 14.04
* vivid aka Ubuntun 15.04
* wheezy aka Debian 7, the current debian oldstable distribution
* jessie aka Debian 8, the current debina stable distribution
* centos-6
* centos-7
* fedora-22
* oel-7
There is lots of documentation on how to do this in the TESTING.asciidoc.
Closes#12611
