Two sections of the hypervisor support matrix refer readers to the
sections of the document dealing with the "pause" operation.
Although there is a section in the raw .ini file called
"[operation.pause]", this doesn't appear at all in the rendered
version of document since it's title is set to
"Stop instance CPUs". This renders readers of the rendered
document unable to find sections being referenced.
This patch clears up the confusion by changing the references
to refer to "Stop instance CPUs" rather than "pause".

Add document to replace / obsolete the giant table on
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/HypervisorSupportMatrix
This initial draft is a fairly straightforward conversion of
that table. Over time, it needs much work to improve the coverage
of API operations and and coverage of important configuration
information that users will care about.
It is using the .ini file syntax in order to record the data in
an easily machine parsable format, while remaining human friendly
by avoiding the syntax heavy approach of XML / JSON / YAML
An extension is registered with sphinx that can convert the
.ini file content into docutils content that then gets rendered
into the developer docs, linked from the index page

The development.environment instructions were almost completely copy/pastable
to get started on a new machine. Almost. This doc patch just adds python-tox to
the list of things to be fetched with apt-get, so now it's really *really* simple to get
started on a brand-new machine or cloud instance.

The unit testing devref had a bit of inconsistent formatting, and a reference
to HACKING.rst which could have been linkifed. This patch fixes both of those,
and additionally the examples have been updated to reflect the recent split
into functional and unit tests.

This patch makes the NUMATopologyFilter and instance claims on the
compute host use instance fitting logic to allow for actually packing
instances onto NUMA capable hosts.
This also means that the NUMA placement that is calculated during a
successfull claim will need to be updated in the database to reflect the
host NUMA cell ids the instance cells will be pinned to.
Using fit_instance_to_host() to decide weather an instance can land
on a host makes the NUMATopologyFilter code cleaner as it now fully
re-uses all the logic in VirtNUMAHostTopology and
VirtNUMATopologyCellUsage classes.

This covers the plan for zero downtime upgrades. It looks at all the
building blocks we have in place, and a few we have planned for kilo and
pulls that into a process that we hope will deliver zero downtime
upgrades.
This is just an initial stake in the ground to help drive the upgrade
efforts during kilo.

This patch removes the baremetal virt driver from nova, which was
deprecated in Juno. It does not aim to perform any of the refactoring
we need to do now that the driver is gone, but is intended as a clean
removal of all the baremetal code itself.
Of specific note are the api_samples tests. We didn't have samples to
test the ironic proxy code, so I removed the baremetal ones for show
and index, resetting that extension back to "untested" status as if it
was new.
Tests that stub out ironic interactions and re-introduce those tests
should be added after this patch.

The syntax suggested for adding hooks to nova via setup.py entrypoints is:
entry_points = {
'nova.hooks': [
'resize_hook': your_package.hooks.YourHookClass,
]
},
But this is incorrect. The proper syntax for an entry_points entry is:
entry_points = {
'nova.hooks': [
'resize_hook=your_package.hooks:YourHookClass',
]
},
