Besides managing vbmcd from systemd, this patch fixes a bug in vbmcd handling. The bug was that devstack runs ironic plugin under user `stack`, but preserving superuser environment by means of `su -p`. That makes `vbmcd` expanding tilda into `/root`, attempting to write into that directory and failing miserably. On top of that, all this happens when `vbmc` tries to invoke `vbmcd` under the hood to preserve backward compatibility of the `vbmc` behaviour before `vbmcd` was introduced. This patch: * adds systemd unit file for vbmcd * invokes `vbmcd` explicitly before everything else and * does that before becoming root and `stack` again The `vbmc` tool can still run in a broken environment for as long as it does not depend on the config file.

Overview
Ironic consists of an API and plug-ins for managing and provisioning physical machines in a security-aware and fault-tolerant manner. It can be used with nova as a hypervisor driver, or standalone service using bifrost. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI to interact with bare metal machines. Ironic also supports vendor-specific plug-ins which may implement additional functionality.
