Deliver master.conf to a node that has no Varaverk on it yet, which is the node that needs it

Phase 1 exists to hand the partner its identity before the install, but the push refused any
host without varaverk.cfg — so the conf could only ever reach a node that no longer needed it
to be told who it was. It now resolves the remote's conf directory across both install layouts
and creates the internal one when neither exists.
