Check if required services are available before starting the scenario

Registered by Alexander Maretskiy

If some scenario tests an unavailable service (in other words, the service is not deployed - e.g. neutron, ceilometer. etc...), then it tries to run task anyway (creates users, makes API requests).
So we have a waste of time and "n/a" results printed (http://paste.openstack.org/show/81891/).

The proposal is to check if service is available before run the scenario, and if not, then print a message and skip the scenario.
This will also reduce time of running the cumulative scenarios set (rally-scenarios/rally.yaml)
