Add functions for uploading, listing, and removing OVA images to the API
and CLI interfaces. Includes improved parsing of the OVF and creation of
a system_template and profile for each OVA.
Also modifies some behaviour around profiles, making most components
option at creation to support both profile types (and incomplete
profiles generally).
Implementation part 2/3 - remaining: OVA VM creation

Rename "pvcd" to "pvcnoded", and "pvc-api" to "pvcapid" so names for the
daemons are fully consistent. Update the names of the configuration
files as well to match this new formatting.
References #79
Warn the administrator if there are active provisioning jobs while
adjusting the current primary node. This is the simplest, cleanest
solution to #69 without trying to implement any hacks or blocking
operations. The administrator can then decide to revert the action
if needed, or will at least know how many jobs are running/queued and
may need to be cancelled.
Move everything from under "storage ceph" to "storage" to simplify the
CLI; additional subclasses can be re-added at a future time if and when
additional storage classes are supported.
Implements a "maintenance mode" for PVC clusters. For now, the only
thing this mode does is disable node fencing while the state is true.
This allows the administrator to tell PVC that network connectivity,
etc. might be interrupted and to avoid fencing nodes.
Closes#70
Implements the storing of three VM metadata attributes:
1. Node limits - allows specifying a list of hosts on which the VM must
run. This limit influences the migration behaviour of VMs.
2. Per-VM node selectors - allows each VM to have its migration
autoselection method specified, to automatically allow different methods
per VM based on the administrator's preferences.
3. VM autorestart - allows a VM to be automatically restarted from a
stopped state, presumably due to a failure to find a target node (either
due to limits or otherwise) during a flush/fence recovery, on the next
node unflush/ready state of its home hypervisor. Useful mostly in
conjunction with limits to ensure that VMs which were shut down due to
there being no valid migration targets are started back up when their
node becomes ready again.
Includes the full client interaction with these metadata options,
including printing, as well as defining a new function to modify this
metadata. For the CLI it is set/modified either on `vm define` or via the
`vm meta` command. For the API it is set/modified either on a POST to
the `/vm` endpoint (during VM definition) or on POST to the `/vm/<vm>`
endpoint. For the API this replaces the previous reserved word for VM
creation from scratch as this will no longer be implemented in-daemon
(see #22).
Closes#52
This is likely not going to be used with the planned implementation of
the automatic provisioning daemon, which will be either an API client or
direct Python binding client.
Includes a simple implementation of a zookeeper "rename" facility,
allowing a key and all data to be replaced by a new key with a different
name but containing all the same child elements and data.
[2/2] Implements #44
Add the "storage" prefix to all Ceph-based commands in both the CLI and
the API. This partially abstracts the storage subsystem from the Ceph
tool specifically, should future storage subsystems be added or changed.
The name "ceph" is still used due to the non-abstracted components of
the Ceph management, e.g. referencing Ceph-specific concepts like OSDs
or pools.
This just seemed like more trouble that it was worth. Flush locks were
originally intended as a way to counteract the weird issues around
flushing that were mostly fixed by the code refactoring, so this will
help test if those issues are truly gone. If not, will look into a
cleaner solution that doesn't result in unchangeable states.
Previous to this, if once force-migrated a VM, the previous_node value
would be updated to the current node, which is likely never what an
administrator would want. Change this functionality so that the previous
node value is not changed, and update the documentation to reflect this.
