Let a requirement be optional, binding only a provider that already runs (hq issue 166, ADR 0330)

Making every soft dependency a provision made it hard: a mesh without influxdb could not assign
grafana, and one with influxdb in its catalogue would install it for grafana. A requirement may now
be written {"name": ..., "optional": true}. It resolves as a hard one when a provider is assigned or
reachable, and is otherwise absent: never refused, nothing installed for it. Its binding, credential
and only-when-bound files are left out, its ${bound:...|default:...} placeholders take their
defaults, the module check refuses one that could render empty, and plan and node list it unbound.
