added info on SSH key generation
added notes about hardcoded SKUs in the pre-defined templates
small tweak re: SSH key pair requirements for Azure
setup_nfs_ha.sh: Added static port assignments to NFS to allow access
through a loadbalancer. Ports 111 (TCP/UDP), 2049 (TCP/UDP), 2000
(TCP/UDP), 2001 (TCP), and 2002 (UDP) are the ports required.
* Reread sysctl tunables for static NFS port

setup_nfs_ha.sh: Modified to prevent needing a reboot for static
port assignments to take effect.

* Increased DRBD resync performance

setup_nfs_ha.sh: Edited the DRBD configuration to increase the resync
speed. This should decrease the amount of time it takes for the initial
sync to complete.
Add highly available NFS option

In order to improve overall performance multiple outbound IPs have been
added to the ARM templates therefore a switch to the Standard
Loadbalancer SKU is required.

A couple of fixes related to performance and bugs
Workload builder service can migrate(lift & shift) Moodle application running on on-premises VMWare infrastructure to Azure. Workload builder service uses ARM templates from this Moodle repo to prepare the infra in Azure. Below changes are made in this repo to support migration flow:

- Added migration specific entry-point/wrapper template which will invoke main template with appropriate parameters.
- Added another wrapper template to create file-share storage account. In migration flow, the Moodle code/config/data will be migration from on-prem to azure file-share as 1st step before creating complete infrastructure.
- Added few parameters to azuredeploy template to support migration flow.
- Changes to install_moodle.sh to skip fresh Moodle installation commands. And also added couple of helper functions to update Moodle config settings in the migrated config file.
Using 'Standard' LoadBalancer SKU for migration scenario as well, align to other fresh deployment scenarios.
Migration flow uses assessment based VMSS sku and not all of them support Accelerated Networking. By default, Accelerated Networking will be disabled in migration flow and enabled as per need.
Using a different version of grunt
Move fully configurable deploy to later in the README
