Code Issues Proposed changes

Do not copy /sbin/ip to /usr/bin/monasa-agent-ip

Browse Source 
This patch removes the code that does the copy of /sbin/ip to
/usr/bin/monasca-agent-ip. There is a limitation with /sbin/ip
that limits copying it to a new name that is longer than
2 characters. The error is:

./monasca-agent-ip a
Object "nasca-agent-ip" is unknown, try "ip help".

As this is not working on RHEL,SLES, or Ubuntu this code
should be removed.

4. Each VM needs an appropriate security group configuration to allow ICMP
5. A sudoers entry for the monasca-agent user needs to be created which allows access to /bin/ip. For example:
Defaults:monasca-agent !requiretty
Defaults:monasca-agent secure_path="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"
monasca-agent ALL = (root) NOPASSWD:/bin/ip
#### Detection
The monasca-setup detection plugin for libvirt performs the following tests and tasks before configuring ping checks:
1. Ability to determine the name of the user under which monasca-agent processes run (eg, `mon-agent`)
2. Availability of the `python-neutronclient` library (by attempting to import `client` from `neutronclient.v2_0`)
3. A separate enhanced-capabilities `ip` command exists:
a. The detection plugin copies `/sbin/ip` to `sys.path[0]/monasca-agent-ip` (see the [configuration](#configuration) section above for an example)
b. Permissions on the copy are changed to the `mon-agent` user (or whichever Agent user is configured), mode 0700.
c. The `/sbin/setcap` command is called, applying `cap_sys_admin+ep` to the copy, as `cap_sys_admin` is the only capability which provides `setns`, necessary to execute commands in a separate namespace.
d. The detection plugin confirms that the enhanced capabilities were successfully applied
3. Existance of /bin/ip. A separate enhanced-capabilities `ip` command exists:
4. Existence of a ping command; detection will try `/usr/bin/fping`, `/sbin/fping`, and `/bin/ping` in that order. `fping` is preferred because it allows for sub-second timeouts, but is not installed by default in some Linux distributions.
If any of the above requirements fail, a WARN-level message is output, describing the problem. The libvirt plugin will continue to function without these requirements, but ping checks will be disabled.
