Gregory Haynes 9de2d21a96 Add HashRingManager to wrap hash ring singleton
Currently, the API service creates a new hash ring on every request.
Instead of that, we should cache the hash ring object -- but we should
also expose a way to refresh it when necessary. This method will also
be used by the ConductorManager to cache and refresh the hash ring
when conductors join / leave the cluster.

This patch preserves the existing API behavior by resetting the hash
ring on every request. This should be addressed in a subsequent patch.

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.
