Sean Mooney cb7084ed18 Fix gnocchi install from git 
Recent changes to git prevent git repos from being parsed if they
are not owned by the current user as part of a CVE fix. Some
project use stevedore to load plugins and this is broken if
gnocchi is installed from git via "sudo pip install".

This change uses devstacks git_clone to ensure that the gnocchi
repos is clonned under $DEST aka /opt/stack as the current user not
root. It then uses pip install -e to install the precloned repo.

To enable this GNOCCHI_REPO and GNOCCHI_BRANCH are intoduced
and the non standard GNOCCHI_GIT_PATH is removed.

A long standing comment to stop installing from git after
Gnocchi 4.0 is adressed by only installing from  git if
gnocchi is listed in LIBS_FROM_GIT. However since
4.4.2 is currently incompatible with openstacks upper-constraits
file the ci will continue to git however the git repo will
now be prepared by zuul using required-projects.

This will have the side effect of allowing
Depends on to work for PRs to gnocchi however testing that
is out of scope of this patch.

This patch adds a sample local.conf that can be used to deploy
locally for devopment.

Enabling Ceilometer in DevStack

  1. Download Devstack:

    git clone https://opendev.org/openstack/devstack
cd devstack

  2. Add this repo as an external repository in local.conf file:

    [[local|localrc]]
enable_plugin ceilometer https://opendev.org/openstack/ceilometer

    To use stable branches, make sure devstack is on that branch, and specify the branch name to enable_plugin, for example:

    enable_plugin ceilometer https://opendev.org/openstack/ceilometer stable/mitaka

    There are some options, such as CEILOMETER_BACKEND, defined in ceilometer/devstack/settings, they can be used to configure the installation of Ceilometer. If you don't want to use their default value, you can set a new one in local.conf.

    Alternitvely you can modify copy and modify the sample local.conf located at ceilometer/devstack/local.conf.sample

  3. Run stack.sh.
