There is a new Zones implementation coming that will use AMQP-to-AMQP
channels vs. the public API. This is being done for three reasons:
1. remove complications in the OpenStack API (and possibly allow EC2 Zones)
2. remove dependencies on keystone and novaclient
3. faster scheduling (fewer chances for race conditions)

This patch fixes the docs so that the API extensions documentation gets
included. In passing, also update the API extensions index to include
an extension that was not listed.

Working on blueprint separate-nova-adminapi. This removes the
admin_only extension attribute and the allow_admin_api flag. The
approach we're going for now is to load all extensions, but
to set an admin-only rule in our policy file for those extensions
that should be limited to just admin users. Now that all of our
admin api code has been moved to extensions, in order to
prevent admin api code from being loaded, simply remove it from
the extension list.

* Improves deployment flexibility by allowing deployers to choose which address proxies like nova-xvpvncserver should use to to connect to instance proxies. For xenserver, this will generally be the management ip of dom0. For libvirt, this will be the management ip of the host.
* Fixes bug 918451
* Renames vncserver_host to vncserver_listen for slightly better usage clarity
* Updates docs

This code was getting confusing because of the ambiguity
between dns zones and openstack availability zones. 'Domain'
seems a bit clearer than 'zone' in this context.
For blueprint public-and-private-dns.

Adding this functionality required the existing DNS api
to be rearranged considerably.
Nova needs to track some information about domains that is
outside the scope of the DNS driver, specifically the availability
zone of a private domain and the project of a public domain.
In order to track those attributes, this patch adds a new table
to the Nova database, dns_domains.
This patch perpetuates some naming ambiguities (e.g. zone vs. domain).
A future renaming patch will sort all this out.
For blueprint public-and-private-dns.

Removed the dns driver function rename_entry(). Since 'name'
is the unique identifier for an entry, trying to rename things
causes various confusions. Better to leave the user to
delete and recreate.

This simplifies a number of Jenkins jobs which currently, other
than directory names, could be the same for all OpenStack
projects. By renaming the virtualenv directory, the redundant
Jenkins virtualenv build and copy jobs can be eliminated.

Added docs about what's on Launchpad
Added docs on Gerrit with pointers to wiki.
Added docs on Jenkins: how to access, what it does

General editing of the page on how to set up a development
environment, including:
- Documented which packages you need to install on Fedora-based
systems in order to run a development environment.
- Documented prereqs for setting up on Mac OS X
- Reorganized some sections
- Word wrapped text to 78 columns
- Removed steps to install pep8/pylint, this is now done automatically.
- MacOSX -> Mac OS X
Also, some minor edits:

Removed .rst files that are automatically generated using the nova_autodoc extension. It's not really worth keeping these in the repo since users can regenerate the files at will, and the content is also available at nova.openstack.org.

Fixes bug 844160
Makes the servers create API call work with all schedulers, removes
'zone boot', and folds create_instance_helper back into servers
controller.
Notable changes:
1) compute API's create_at_all_once has been removed. It was only used
by zone boot.
2) compute API's create() no longer creates Instance DB entries. The
schedulers now do this. This makes sense, as only the schedulers will
know where the instances will be placed. They could be placed locally or
in a child zone. However, this comes at a cost. compute_api.create() now
does a 'call' to the scheduler instead of a 'cast' in most cases (* see
below). This is so it can receive the instance ID(s) that were created
back from the scheduler. Ultimately, we probably need to figure out a
way to generate UUIDs before scheduling and return only the information
we know about an instance before it is actually scheduled and created.
We could then revert this back to a cast. (Or maybe we always return a
reservation ID instead of an instance.)
3) scheduler* calls do not return a host now. They return a value
that'll be returned if the caller does an rpc.call(). The casts to
hosts are now done by the scheduler drivers themselves.
4) There's been an undocumented feature in the OS API to allow multiple
instances to be built. I've kept it.
5) If compute_api.create() is creating multiple instances, only a single
call is made to the scheduler, vs the old way of sending many casts. All
schedulers now check how many instances have been requested.
6) I've added an undocumented option 'return_reservation_id' when
building. If set to True, only a reservation ID is returned to the API
caller, not the instance. This essentially gives you the old 'nova
zone-boot' functionality.
7) It was requested I create a stub for a zones extension, so you'll see
the empty extension in here. We'll move some code to it later.
8) Fixes an unrelated bug that merged into trunk recently where zones DB
calls were not being done with admin context always, anymore.
9) Scheduler calls were always done with admin context when they should
elevate only when needed.
10) Moved stub_network flag so individual tests can run again.
* Case #6 above doesn't wait for the scheduler response with instance
IDs. It does a 'cast' instead.
