Devananda van der Veen 97dddca673 Add helpers for single-node tasks.
Add two @properties to help facilitate use of single-node tasks,
and update docs accordingly.

While tasks should support multi-node operations, right now, most code
paths are fairly simple and only operating on a single node at a time.
The task.node and task.driver properties will make things DRYer.

Ironic

Ironic is an Incubated OpenStack project which aims to provision bare metal machines instead of virtual machines, forked from the Nova Baremetal driver. It is best thought of as a bare metal hypervisor API and a set of plugins which interact with the bare metal hypervisors. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI in concert to provision and turn on/off machines, but Ironic also supports vendor-specific plugins which may implement additional functionality.
