Bug Description

Observed on:
Fuel release: "8.0"
  openstack_version: "2015.1.0-8.0"
  api: "1.0"
  build_number: "217"
  build_id: "217"

Problem description:
It was observed that Fuel menu provisions 'root' user for interacting with Fuel node through CLI.
This design choice is far from being optimal, taking into account that Fuel also enables SSH root authentication.

Solution proposal:
In Fuel menu, do not provision 'root' user but other unprivileged user, for example 'fuelcli' or 'fueladmin'.
Add this unprivileged user to 'wheel' group to allow execution of privileged actions.
