Doug Hellmann e8acf5e736 move existing content into the new standard structure
This patch rearranges and reformats existing content.

It replaces the home-grown autodoc feature with the one built into pbr,
for consistency with other OpenStack projects.

It depends on the doc-migration spec and a pbr feature to allow us to
specify where the autodoc content should go in the source tree during
the build.

Python Library Reference

In order to use the python api directly, you must first obtain an auth token and identify which endpoint you wish to speak to. Once you have done so, you can use the API like so:

>>> from glanceclient import Client
>>> glance = Client('1', endpoint=OS_IMAGE_ENDPOINT, token=OS_AUTH_TOKEN)
>>> image = glance.images.create(name="My Test Image")
>>> print image.status
'queued'
>>> image.update(data=open('/tmp/myimage.iso', 'rb'))
>>> print image.status
'active'
>>> image.update(properties=dict(my_custom_property='value'))
>>> with open('/tmp/copyimage.iso', 'wb') as f:
        for chunk in image.data():
            f.write(chunk)
>>> image.delete()
