Redeploys a new node that replaces the specified edge node.

Redeploys an edge node at NSX Manager that replaces the edge node with
identifier <node-id>. If NSX Manager can access the specified edge node,
then the node is put into maintenance mode and then the associated VM is
deleted. This is a means to reset all configuration on the edge node.
The communication channel between NSX Manager and edge is established after
this operation.
