Automated deployment to static host

[Jared-Sprague]

due to #378 , I've decided it's time to move the static "dist" files to their own host. Even though they are cached in cloudflare, the node servers are still listening on http ports and tited to the nodebalancer which ususes valuable cycles and bandwidth. I think it's better that the node servers are dedicated to websocket and all other ports closed. I think this is the best solution. I've already got a static 1 core linode for files tied to the nodebalancer on port 80. Now I need to do a bunch of modification to the scripts:

• [x] Modify build.sh script to deploy the static files to the static server via some method tbd
• [x] Modify the create_node.sh script to not create http nodes on the nodebalancer
• [x] make ansible roles for stack specific provisioning for httpd and node.js
• [x] modify firewall rules for nodejs servers, to remove http ports
• [ ] update design diagrams

Sounds great!

I wonder... is it possible to push our static files directly to cloudflare? Then we wouldn't even need a linode for hosting them.

all done!
