this is something that will be changed "soon"
start failures are (today) treated as a special case in that the
resource simply cant run on that node anymore... so updating the
failcount seemed somewhat redundant

the idea is that eventually we'll remove the special start-failure
logic in the PE and instead set failcount to INFINITY.  which achieves
the same result in the end, but is a little cleaner to implement and
cleanup (ie. with crm_failcount).
