stack/erp5: Add failover script
Add a script in bin directory that can be called manually to turn a replica into a primary. Being able to turn a replica into a primary is an absolutely necessary feature of replication. It's a necessary step of a takoever procedure. Questions remain for automatisation. One option is to provide a url the user may simply interact with (clickable button ...) to trigger the script, that may also be used automatically as part of a larger takoever procedure. Triggering the change to primary by editing the instance parameters - such as by removing the replication-related parameters - does not seem best: one immediate drawback is the uncertain propagation time of instance parameters; another is the reliance on the availability of the SlapOS master to trigger a usually time-sensitive operation.
