* Allow a ``instance_info/boot_iso`` parameter to be leveraged to be
the medium utilized for booting from an explicit ISO image which the
conductor would support downloading, caching, and providing to the

baremetal machine. This change would be focused on the virtual media
boot interface code in relation to usage of Redfish.
* Teach the code related to the pass-through to provide the same basic
capability to append parameters to the command line through decomposition
of the ISO, appending to ``grub2`` and ``isolinux`` configurations with
the supplied values, and repackaging of the ISO file for deployment.
* Optionally: Enable the glance image ``image_source`` code to support this
path for iso booting. This could potentially allow the OpenStack Nova
virt driver for ironic to enable booting of instances from ISO mediums,
however this is out of scope.
