Dean Troyer cdf3d76647 Add stack phases to extras.d handling
Add hooks to stack.sh, unstack.sh and clean.sh to call the extras.d
scripts at multiple points in stack.sh.  This allows these scripts to
perform installation and startup tasks at similar times as they would
if integrated into stack.sh.

extras.d/70-tempest.sh is present as an example of the structure
of these scripts.

See extras.d/README.md for more information.

# Extras Hooks
The `extras.d` directory contains project dispatch scripts that are called
at specific times by `stack.sh`, `unstack.sh` and `clean.sh`. These hooks are
used to install, configure and start additional projects during a DevStack run
without any modifications to the base DevStack scripts.
When `stack.sh` reaches one of the hook points it sources the scripts in `extras.d`
that end with `.sh`. To control the order that the scripts are sourced their
names start with a two digit sequence number. DevStack reserves the sequence
numbers 00 through 09 and 90 through 99 for its own use.
The scripts are sourced at each hook point so they should not declare anything
at the top level that would cause a problem, specifically, functions. This does
allow the entire `stack.sh` variable space to be available. The scripts are
sourced with one or more arguments, the first of which defines the hook phase:
arg 1: source | stack | unstack | clean
source: always called first in any of the scripts, used to set the
initial defaults in a lib/* script or similar
stack: called by stack.sh. There are three possible values for
the second arg to distinguish the phase stack.sh is in:
arg 2: install | post-config | extra
unstack: called by unstack.sh
clean: called by clean.sh. Remember, clean.sh also calls unstack.sh
so that work need not be repeated.
