slapos/proxy: support forwarding requests as a partition
In SlapOS, both users or partitions can requests partitions. With the multimaster support of slapos proxy, all requests where made as a user, but in the case of recursive slapos - where a partition from the "outer" slapos includes an "inner" slapos, it makes sense to forward partitions requests as the partition in the "outer" slapos - this way when this partition is destroyed all partitions that might have been requested are also destroyed. To request as partition, the multi-master entry must define two extra keys: - computer, that can be optained by $${slap-configuration:computer} from instance buildout - partition, that can be optained by $${slap-configuration:partition} When these are not set, the request will be made as a user, like it was the case before. We also change the test to unset SLAPGRID_INSTANCE_ROOT because this implementation has side effect - the environment variable is set and never unset. Without this, test fail when running the full test suite because a previous test was leaking SLAPGRID_INSTANCE_ROOT. This is definitely something we'll have to improve later.
