[dev] [DISCUSS] Pull Request 666 container support

[anthony shaw <an...@apache.org>]

https://github.com/apache/libcloud/pull/666 is the pull request for
container support as previously discussed - docs :
http://libcloud-fork.readthedocs.org/en/libcloud-781_containers/container/index.html

I've added drivers for
* Docker native support
http://libcloud-fork.readthedocs.org/en/libcloud-781_containers/container/drivers/docker.html
* Joyent Triton support (with Docker)
http://libcloud-fork.readthedocs.org/en/libcloud-781_containers/container/drivers/joyent.html
* Amazon ECS support
http://libcloud-fork.readthedocs.org/en/libcloud-781_containers/container/drivers/ecs.html
* Kubernetes v1.0+ and therefore some components of the Google
container service, although I'd like a seperate driver for this to be
written by someone else.
http://libcloud-fork.readthedocs.org/en/libcloud-781_containers/container/drivers/kubernetes.html

Also

* supporting docs for the container API and the drivers
* supporting tests from actual APIs (cost me a few $!)
* a utility library for pulling images from docker hub or a docker
registry API (like Amazon ECR)

If you haven't yet had the chance to review this, please do so now. I
feel that this PR has covered off a large chunk of the potential use
cases and would therefore be fit for purpose. The drivers themselves
are not production ready, we would release them as experimental in the
next major release.

A quick note for those who maybe haven't done this before:

setup a virtualenv first
# virtualenv .

Then use pip to download this copy
# bin/pip install
https://github.com/DimensionDataCBUSydney/libcloud/archive/LIBCLOUD-781_containers.zip

You can then build and test scripts within that directory for the branch.
