[Pacemaker] resources not migrating when some are not runnable on one node, maybe because of groups or master/slave clones?

This coupled with the colocation rule between test and the drbd master, and the location rule to never run "test" on storage02 cause the "test" resource to never run.... "test" has to run with the drbd master, and the drbd master is stuck because of the transient attributes on a node "test" can't run on, so "test" can't start.

This is added by the RA with the crm_master command. For example the
drbd RA chooses this value from the current state of drbd to let
Pacemaker promote best candidate.
