Warning about DC/OS nodes requirement

[rimusz]

read me should have a warning about 6 monsters nodes will be created.
got puzzled for a while as docker deploy failed with missing VMs, then double checked that GCS compute instance group was trying to created 6 instances, my account needed quote increase.

👋 @rimusz Thanks for reporting this issue! Yeah, we probably need to add some additional links to these sentence in the README Google Cloud (GCE) credentials (AWS and Azure are supported as well) with the necessary permissions

maybe also to have an option to set lover spec VMs, as current ones are very beefy ones.
or point the user where to change VMs type:

@spahl @smugcloud I think that we should remove the automation (Makefile) if we can't support it. At this time, I don't think we can and it seems to be causing a negative impact.

@pires @spahl We could easily improve this user experience by extracting the yaml files with the vm definitions out of the Makefile.

A quick solution could be to move the yaml templates out of the Makefile and simply refer them in the Makefile by LAUNCH_CONFIG_GCE=cat $(./resources/gce.template.yaml)`. With this solution, it'd be more clear to users to see which target infrastructure we support, as well as to facilitate its customization. I can send a PR if you agree about it.

[hectorj2f]

We've extracted the yaml files out of the Makefile into the resources directory (https://github.com/mesosphere/dcos-kubernetes-quickstart/tree/master/resources). We also added a note in the README.md to allow users to customize them.

I think we can close this issue.
