Description of change
pad.lv/1684325
Currently a provider-specific AZ is not propagated to containers
deployed on any provider - during container creation an empty
HardwareCharacteristics struct is initialized by a container manager.
It is important for certain applications to have this value exposed as
an environment variable in a hook context so that they can be
configured to be aware of physical placement with respect to failure
domains.
Given that provisioner has an ability to query machine state via
an apiserver facade, it is possible to get an availability zone for a
machine with a given tag. For that a new API call is introduced to query
that information.

Documentation changes
Creates a new facade call AvailabilityZone which allows to query that field from hardware characteristics stored in state for a machine identified by a given tag.
