Luigi Toscano 6fba3fdfa1 New get-devstack-os-environment role
The role reads the OS_* variables set by devstack through openrc
for the specified user and project and exports them as
the os_env_vars fact. It is meant to be used as a porting aid
for the jobs of the non-unified *clients only.

This is useful to run functional tests against the generated
environment. A slightly less generic version of this role
is currently used by python-cinderclient and python-novaclient
(get-os-environment).

In order to make this more useful, call it from
devstack-tox-functional and derived jobs. The role
execution is disabled by default and it can be enabled
by setting openrc_enable_export: true.

Reads the OS* variables set by devstack through openrc for the specified user and project and exports them as the os_env_vars fact.

WARNING: this role is meant to be used as porting aid for the non-unified python-<service>client jobs which are already around, as those clients do not use clouds.yaml as openstackclient does. When those clients and their jobs are deprecated and removed, or anyway when the new code is able to read from clouds.yaml directly, this role should be removed as well.
