Description

Currently OS Family is checked in two places - one is in java code (OsFamily) the other is in os_check.py. Create a single file that can be read by both that defines the mappings. Something like:

{
  "redhat6": [
    "centos6", "redhat6", "oraclelinux6"
  ], ...
}

This relationship should be used by Ambari. The agent should always report the correct OS instead of trying to determine family on its own.
