VCL-670 - user provided data loaded at request time

xmlrpcWrappers.php: modified XMLRPCdeployServer: added argument '$userdata'; this is placed into the variable table with a key of 'userdata|<reservation id>'; entries are created for each reservation that is part of a cluster; the data is then dropped in to /root/.vclcontrol/post_reserve_userdata by the backend at reservation time

> Provide a method for users to upload data / content, that would be transferred to the loaded machine at load time. 
> There are cases where a unique config or some xml data might need to be applied to a reservation or image at load or reservation time. 
> The image creator would upload this generic data to along with the image profile, and would make use of the vcl_post_load and vcl_post_reserve.
> Since this might be sensitive data, it should be stored in /root/.vclcontrol for linux and a similar location for windows.
