Right now, the QA code is not covered by pylint, and this shows at
least one low-impact bug.

This patch does the necessary changes to make QA pylint-clean, and the
changes the makefile to run pylint for it.

Notable changes:

- qa_utils.GenericQueryTest: randfields was not used at all, and my
  belief is that it was indented to be used in order not to modify the
  input list; so I replaced randfields with fields, so we only shuffle
  the our local copy
- qa_node.TestOutOfBand was using it's own copy of AcquireNode(), so I
  replaced it with the existing version
- qa_os: was using 'dir' in a couple of places, replaced with dirname

Now that group queries use query2 infrastructure, update the QA tests to
use the generic functions in qa_utils.py.

This adds QA tests for the SetGroupParams operation, both for CLI and
RAPI. Additionally, it adds tests for add/rename/remove groups via RAPI,
which had not been included in a previous patch series. Finally, it also
tests setting "alloc_policy" (and, for the CLI, "ndparams") at group
creation time.

This is a single function that tests all of of the following:

  - creating groups
  - creating groups that exist fails
  - renaming an empty group
  - renaming a group with nodes
  - renaming to a name that already exists fails
  - removing an empty group works
  - removing a group with nodes fails

The "default" group is only used for the "rename group with nodes"
test.

This patch adds targeted pylint disables, where it makes sense (either
due to limitations in pylint or due to historical usage), and also a few
blanket ones in rapi where all the names are… “different”.

Since modules are not directly executables, remove the shebang from
them. This helps with lintian warnings.

Also make the autogenerated _autoconf.py contain two comment lines at
the beginning, like the other modules.
