[Pacemaker] Notes on pacemaker installation on OmniOS

[Andrew Beekhof]

Interesting work... a couple of questions...

- Why the need to run pacemaker as non-root?

Also, I really encourage the kinds of patches referenced in these instructions to bring them to the attention of upstream so that we can work on getting them merged.
