Dramatic part of RingBuilder.search_devs which parse a complex format
of a search device string moved to the swift-ring-builder script.
Instead, the search_devs has a simple interface to search devices.

The region is one level above the zone; it is intended to represent a
chunk of machines that is distant from others with respect to
bandwidth and latency.
Old rings will default to having all their devices in region 1. Since
everything is in the same region by default, the ring builder will
simply distribute across zones as it did before, so your partition
assignment won't move because of this change. If you start adding
devices in other regions, of course, the assignment will change to
take that into account.
swift-ring-builder still accepts the same syntax as before, but will
default added devices to region 1 if no region is specified.
Examples:
$ swift-ring-builder foo.builder add r2z1-1.2.3.4:555/sda
$ swift-ring-builder foo.builder add r1z3-1.2.3.4:555/sda
$ swift-ring-builder foo.builder add z3-1.2.3.4:555/sda
Also, some updates to ring-overview doc.

unit test for it.
Some mistakes is in original docstring of that method. There's no unit
test for two methods in swift.common.ring.utils.
