WISH: Make 'rsc stop' support stopping processing on another machine #78

Issue

If the RStudio Server runs on another host, then rsc stop will not work and instead given an error, e.g.

$ rsc stop
ERROR: Stopping the RStudio Server can only be made from the machine (node42) where it was started from
Traceback:
1: main() on line #1451 in /software/c4/cbi/software/rstudio-server-controller-0.12.0/bin/rsc
Exiting (exit 1)

Troubleshooting

The above assertion is implemented as:

Wish

Update rsc stop so that it attempts to SSH into the remote machine and call rsc stop from there. Only if that doesn't do it, then thrown an error.
