Ah, but they are. For example, the RAs currently use their metadata to
tell the GUI what defaults to set for clone_max, clone_node_max already,
and I'd expect that a drbd RA would also wish to tell us that yes, it
would want to have notifications enabled by default pretty please, and
that yes, it's a master-slave one. (Currently, this is indicated by the
promote/demote/notify ops being in the metadata.)
If we move it out of the regular namespace, it follows they shouldn't be
described within the regular <parameters> section in the metadata
either. So we need to put them somewhere else...
