Description

The topology validation that takes place during blueprint creation request can be disabled by passing validate_topology=false as query param. Validation also has a side-effect of adding any auto-deployable components/dependencies to the topology.

For mpack-based deployment most of the validation is moved to the cluster creation request, since mpacks may not be available prior to that. We need to provide a way to disable validation in this request, too. Using the same validate_topology=false flag may be the best for this purpose.
