Adding a sequence diagram of installer-based provisioning with full-host bootdisk. Using PlantUML to build the diagram.

Preparation for improvements of Provisioning hosts. The diagram will be used later to explain the workflow of the provisioning method.

Summary of today's call:

We agreed to create this diagram for unmanaged DHCP only.
Leos will check when and how the elimintation of the external storage device happens.

@stejskalleos You mentioned that the host reports its actual IP address with other facts if I remember correctly. I'm not sure if it applies to unmanaged DHCP. If it does, when exactly does it happen?
