Sam Betts 4af672b849 Add GenericLocalLinkConnectionHook processing hook 
For Ironic multi-tenant networking support, we need to be able to
discover the nodes local connectivity. To do this IPA can try to pull
LLDP packets for every NIC.

This patch adds a processing hook to handle the data from these packets
in ironic-inspector so that we can populate the correct fields fields in
Ironic. The generic lldp hook only handles the mandatory fields port id
and chassis id, set on port_id and switch_id in local_link_connection.

Further LLDP fields should be handled by additional vendor specific LLDP
processing hooks, that populate the switch_info field in a non-generic
way.

Hardware introspection for OpenStack Bare Metal

This is an auxiliary service for discovering hardware properties for a node managed by Ironic. Hardware introspection or hardware properties discovery is a process of getting hardware parameters required for scheduling from a bare metal node, given it's power management credentials (e.g. IPMI address, user name and password).

Note

ironic-inspector was called ironic-discoverd before version 2.0.0.

For information on any current or prior version, see the release notes.
