METRON-1333 Ensure that ansible-docker can be used to build metron ( including rpms ) The ansible-docker container could be used to build metron ( even the rpms ) and run the ansible scripts. This is no longer true, as the new node ui projects have native compilation that requires c++ 11 support in gcc, and rpm build requires node to be installed ( not local installed as in the mvn packaging ). Many users are having problems building metron on centos platforms, having this container available and functioning would be a great help. This PR addresses this by: - installing devtoolset-2 into the container to get cpp 11 - creating a .bash_profile for root that enables the devtoolset environment - installing node into the container since building rpms now requires node ( and not just the local node used during building in maven ) - documenting building in container, as well as mapping local .m2 repo into the container You can now build and test metron, including building the rpms. ## Testing Follow the steps in the read me and build metron: `mvn clean package` `mvn clean package -DskipTests` `mvn clean install && cd metron-deployment && mvn package -P build-rpms` ## Pull Request Checklist ### For all changes: - [x] Is there a JIRA ticket associated with this PR?
