Dmitry Tantsur f5258bb834 METAL-855: baremetal: remove ironic-inspector

The inspection functionality is now provided by ironic proper.

Also fixes a few minor quirks in the baremetal config, such as:
- Passing htpasswd variables to BMO (it cannot use them)
- Creating auth-config files (only required for cross-service calls).

Support for Bare Metal Environments

OpenShift has support for bare metal deployments with either User provided infrastructure (UPI), or Installer-provided infrastructure (IPI).

The following is a summary of key differences:

UPI bare metal
- Provisioning hosts is an external requirement
- Requires extra DNS configuration
- Requires setup of load balancers
- Offers more control and choice over infrastructure
IPI bare metal
- Has built-in hardware provisioning components, will provision nodes with RHCOS automatically, and supports the Machine API for ongoing management of these hosts.
- Automates internal DNS requirements
- Automates setup of self-hosted load balancers
- Supports “openshift-install create cluster” for bare metal environments using this infrastructure automation, but requires the use of compatible hardware, as described in install_ipi.md.
