Stephen Finucane 0d6d1616b9 tox: Don't create '.pyc' files 
There's no reason to create these files and cleaning them up takes
precious time during each test run. Don't do it.

The benefits of this can be seen in running both the full test suite
and part of the test suite. For the former case - running the full
test suite:

    $ time ( tox -e py27 )

Without this change:

    real    12m48.003s
    user    38m27.039s
    sys     1m2.786s

With this change:

    real    11m53.921s
    user    39m33.360s
    sys     1m1.686s

For the latter case - running part of the full test suite:

    $ time ( tox -e py27 -- nova.tests.unit.test_configdrive2 )

Without this change:

    real    2m0.686s
    user    1m3.080s
    sys     0m12.950s

With this change:

    real    1m37.098s
    user    1m16.559s
    sys     0m11.846s

The actual results can vary massively, but this change is always
faster.

OpenStack Nova README

OpenStack Nova provides a cloud computing fabric controller, supporting a wide variety of virtualization technologies, including KVM, Xen, LXC, VMware, and more. In addition to its native API, it includes compatibility with the commonly encountered Amazon EC2 and S3 APIs.

OpenStack Nova is distributed under the terms of the Apache License, Version 2.0. The full terms and conditions of this license are detailed in the LICENSE file.

Nova primarily consists of a set of Python daemons, though it requires and integrates with a number of native system components for databases, messaging and virtualization capabilities.

To keep updated with new developments in the OpenStack project follow @openstack on Twitter.

To learn how to deploy OpenStack Nova, consult the documentation available online at:

http://docs.openstack.org

For information about the different compute (hypervisor) drivers supported by Nova, read this page on the wiki:

https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/HypervisorSupportMatrix

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:

http://bugs.launchpad.net/nova

Developers wishing to work on the OpenStack Nova project should always base their work on the latest Nova code, available from the master GIT repository at:

https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/nova

Developers should also join the discussion on the mailing list, at:

http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev

Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file, and pass all unit tests. Further developer focused documentation is available at:

http://docs.openstack.org/developer/nova/

For information on how to contribute to Nova, please see the contents of the CONTRIBUTING.rst file.
