The boot-time script (prepare_guest.sh) is one of the less reliable parts
of the install process. This change enables SSH into the host as well as
reporting of the IP address. This significantly helps debugging issues
now and enables moving of all other setup code to being executed over SSH.

DevStack installs a default minimal .vimrc file for the stack user.
Unfortunately the `syntax on` config line is not recognised by the vim
installed in DomU. It results in an annoying message being displayed
whenever the user is using vi. To avoid this issue, removing the `syntax
on` line.

Devstack doesn't need vim or locate, if someone wants to use them, they
can just install them afterwards.

As we are moving forward to test XenAPI in the gate, it is necessary to
move dom0 related modifications to be performed from domU. For this
purpose, a new user is created, and that user should be used to talk to
dom0 from domU. This change creates that user, makes it possible for
dom0 to log in to domU with that account, and configure that account to
be able to talk down to dom0.
Also move several steps to the nova xenserver plugin:
- dom0 plugin installation
- create kernels and images directory
- install console rotate script
- configure a cron to execute console rotate script
Configuration changes:
A new configuration option, DOMZERO_USER has been created, that
specifies a user account that is configured to be able to do
passwordless ssh to dom0.

Although nova is setting the permissions on block devices, sometimes it
fails, and that results in an instance failing to launch. It is only an
issue for 3-part images, and images accessed through block devices. This
patch adds an udev rule, so that devices will be accessible.

On our CI system, the devstack instance was reporting errors, that are
related to devstack's address_in_net function - that requires the python
netaddr library to be installed. This patch preinstalls this python
package.

Add error on unitialised variable to the scripts. This way some issues
were identified. Also modify README with fresh variables. The patch
includes:
- Add SWIFT_HASH to the README
- Add XENAPI_CONNECTION_URL to the README
- Add VNCSERVER_PROXYCLIENT_ADDRESS to the README
- Introduce UBUNTU_INST_IFACE which is the OpenStack VM interface used
for the netinstall. It defaults to eth3. Previously this parameter
was set by the combination of HOST_IP_IFACE and the undocumented
NETINSTALL_IP
- get rid of NETINSTALL_IP
- xenrc includes CLEAN_TEMPLATES
- xenrc no longer tries to change directory
- remove chrooting from prepare_guest.sh (STAGING_DIR was always / )
- remove DO_TGZ variable from prepare_guest.sh
- use arguments to call prepare_guest.sh, instead of env vars
- Fix backslash escaping in prepare_guest_template.sh
NOTE: networking is about to be addressed in a separate change.

On many systems the requiretty sudoers option is turned on by default.
With "requiretty" option the sudo ensures the user have real tty access.
Just several "su" variant has an option for skipping the new session creation step.
Only one session can posses a tty, so after a "su -c" the sudo will not
work.
We will use sudo instead of su, when we create the stack account.
This change adds new variable the STACK_USER for
service username.

I have ensured:
- template gets re-used on second run
- template includes XenServer tools, and custom user accounts
- take snapshot before first boot, for easy re-run
- make host_ip_iface work with either eth2 or eth3
- make ssh into domU checks looser
- above is all ground work for improved jenkins tests
- added some more comments to make it scripts clearer

add support for local mirrors by:
- making sure the preseed file points to a local mirror.
- the apt sources mounted in the DevStack VM will point automatically to the same mirrror
