ccs_tool with it's addnode (etc) subcommands still exists. It writes
directly to cluster.conf as it always did.

Fabio had the good sense to #ifdef the ccsd update parts of that code so
that they are only active when LEGACY_CODE is defined. So if you still
have ccsd then 'ccs_tool addnode' will tell it to distribute the new
version.

I don't know anything about the new distribution system (I never did
managed to get ricci compiled!) but we might need to add hooks for that
into the ccs_tool editconf functions for compatibility.
