Get Azure Compute Out of Labs

Hi,

I see azurecompute  API is implemented but not the compute service
abstraction.
Other than implementing the abstraction, what need to be done to get it out
of labs?

I might be able work on this for next 3-4 weeks.

Hi Ignasi,

Great. I'll be able to work full time on this from next week.Your support
will be much needed to review commits.

I'd say the major issue now with Azure is how authentication works.
OAuth is still not fully supported in their API and current
authentication, using SSL client certificates is tricky, as it
requires providing a custom SSL config and using a local keystone.

Apart from that (which is inevitable), the provider is quite modern
and I see nothing apart the abstraction missing to promote it. The
model already uses the new AutoValue practices, and api tests are Mock
tests, so it is in a good shape to be promoted once the Compute
abstraction is implemented.

I don't have time to implement the entire abstraction, but if you're
up to doing it I can definitely help!
