FreeIPA is a good option, generally. As best I understand it, it's currently available in a Docker container for CentOS.

I haven't heard about more standard packaging, but that might come along later...

2. Home directories should be created/deleted automagically under the hood.

You can use pam_mkhomedir to create them, but archiving or deleting home directories would be a manual process.

3. Every user should be able to login on any machines and find his or
her files and preferences.

You can continue using NFS for that.
