Grzegorz Grasza db9ddd39d3 Implement indirection_api 
During a rolling upgrade, ironic conductor and api services are running
with different versions. When an object is received in an incompatible
version, IncompatibleObjectVersion is raised. Implementation of the
indirection API allows the object to be backported to a supported version
by the conductor (conductor has to be the first service to be upgraded).

This change enables backporting of objects from Mitaka. This lays the
foundation to be able to do rolling upgrades from Liberty (or from this
patch onwards) to Mitaka. There may still be other issues that will need
fixing in Mitaka before we will be able to do a full rolling upgrade.

Enabling the indirection_api causes all object methods decorated with
the remotable or remotable_classmethod to do RPC from ironic-api to
ironic-conductor service. To keep the current behavior, I'm removing all
remotable decorators on object methods and thus not enabling object RPC
calls in this patch. These calls caused random timeouts on the CI gates
(probably due to a race in which Nova calls the ironic-api service before
ironic-conductor is up). RPC calls made via the indirection_api should
be enabled one-by-one, when the implications are fully understood.

Ironic

Ironic is an integrated 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.

Project status, bugs, and blueprints are tracked on Launchpad:
