Installing lava-coordinator via apt was effectively a quick stop-gap
measure to get multinode jobs working in dockerized setup. However,
apt package is quite dated (2020.12 currently) and pulls similarly
dated lava-common package which recently started to actively conflict
with other dispatcher code.
OTOH, the (upstream) docker setup includes a container running
coordinator. And real problem originally was actually getting
a proper coordinator config on the dispatcher, installing the
lava-coordinator package seemed like an easy way to do that.
So, now we stop installing the whole package, and instead
install just the config file pointing to a proper host in the
docker-compose system.
