Merge user and users sections of the docs
The openstack doc standard location is 'user', so go with that.
Incorporate pages from the shade and occ docs into the appropriate
places in the user index file.

This still leaves user/logging and user/guide/logging which need to be
rationalized. That will come in the next commit, as it also needs to
actually rationalize the logging helper functions.

Remove the Makefile, as it's not used by things.

Managing Profiles

A profile type can be treated as the meta-type of a Profile object. A registry of profile types is built when the Cluster service starts. When creating a Profile object, you will indicate the profile type used in its spec property.

List Profiles

To examine the list of profiles:

../../examples/clustering/profile.py

When listing profiles, you can specify the sorting option using the sort parameter and you can do pagination using the limit and marker parameters.

Full example: manage profile

Create Profile

When creating a profile, you will provide a dictionary with keys and values specified according to the profile type referenced.

../../examples/clustering/profile.py

Optionally, you can specify a metadata keyword argument that contains some key-value pairs to be associated with the profile.

Full example: manage profile

Find Profile

To find a profile based on its name or ID:

../../examples/clustering/profile.py

The Cluster service doesn't allow updating the spec of a profile. The only way to achieve that is to create a new profile.

Full example: manage profile

Get Profile

To get a profile based on its name or ID:

../../examples/clustering/profile.py

Full example: manage profile

Update Profile

After a profile is created, most of its properties are immutable. Still, you can update a profile's name and/or metadata.

../../examples/clustering/profile.py

The Cluster service doesn't allow updating the spec of a profile. The only way to achieve that is to create a new profile.

Full example: manage profile

Delete Profile

A profile can be deleted after creation, provided that it is not referenced by any active clusters or nodes. If you attempt to delete a profile that is still in use, you will get an error message.

../../examples/clustering/profile.py
