I made this PR because I saw the slaves file while working on ACCUMULO-4448 and thought it should be done. If some else wants to take this a step further and rename master in separate PR, that's fine with me. I wanted to see the term 'slave' removed at a minimum. was (Author: mikewalch): Josh, this is funny.

In the current unreleased major > branch I expect upgrading will require user action (e.g. renaming > configuration files). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
