This patch adds a DevStack plugin to cinderlib so it can be installed directly by DevStack and used for CI jobs as well as development. When installing it will also get the Cinder configuration and generate a .py file with the right initialization of the different backends that have been configured in /etc/cinder/cinder.conf by the DevStack Cinder job and its plugins.

Cinderlib DevStack Plugin
This directory contains the cinderlib DevStack plugin.
To configure cinderlib with DevStack, you will need to enable this plugin by adding one line to the local section of your local.conf file.
To enable the plugin, add a line of the form:
enable_plugin cinderlib <GITURL> [GITREF]
where:
<GITURL> is the URL of a cinderlib repository
[GITREF] is an optional git ref (branch/ref/tag). The default is master.
For example:
enable_plugin cinderlib https://git.openstack.org/openstack/cinderlib
Another example using Stein's stable branch:
enable_plugin cinderlib https://git.openstack.org/openstack/cinderlib stable/stein
The cinderlib DevStack plugin will install cinderlib from Git by
default, but it can be installed from PyPi using the
CINDERLIB_FROM_GIT
configuration option:
CINDERLIB_FROM_GIT=False
The plugin will also generate the code equivalent to the deployed
Cinder's configuration in
$CINDERLIB_SAMPLE_DIR/cinderlib.py
which defaults to the
same directory where the Cinder configuration is saved.
For more information, see the DevStack plugin documentation.
