[OCF] Inconsistencies in Resource Agent specification

Hi,

I was reading the OCF resource agent spec in depth (pun perhaps intended), 
and discovered the following inconsistencies in it, which I hadn't noticed 
before:

1) The RA metadata calls the monitor depth "depth", but the RA spec calls 
the corresponding environment variable OCF_CHECK_LEVEL.  I think they 
should be consistent.  Let me suggest renaming OCF_CHECK_LEVEL to 
OCF_CHECK_DEPTH.

2) The RA metadata example applies "depth" to the status operation, but the 
RA environment variable description implies (correctly IIRC) that the 
OCF_CHECK_LEVEL variable only applies to the monitor operation.
Let me suggest that the examples be changed from status to monitor.
