Adds a new module ironic_python_agent.inspector and new entry point
for extensions, which will allow vendor-specific inspection.
Inspection is run on service start up just before the lookup.
Due to this early start, and due to the fact we don't even know
MAC address of nodes on inspection (to say nothing about IP addresses),
exception handling is a bit different from other agent features:
we try hard not to error out until we send at least something to inspector.

oslo_log wasn't getting the correct config values passed in, so adding
'--debug' to the command line wouldn't enable debug logging.
Added docs about --debug and --standalone (the only two flags I've
seen used/supported).

While working on using multiple hardware managers, I noticed
the docs were a bit lacking. Also fixed a few typos.

This adds and configures a sphinx doc builder. This is based on the code
in Ironic to build documentation.
The goal is for this to contain development documentation relevant to
hacking on the agent, including how to make custom HardwareManagers.
