Break out image creation via diskimage-builder into a separate role. Also break out create-bootable-image for consistency, though it is legacy stuff that we do not expect to use in future. In addition to the above, clean up a couple of typos, etc. in the adjacent code and documentation. Implements: blueprint bifrost-deployment-image Change-Id: If3dbfa6a6b4e3f6eee9b614342dbf5bccadfbd65

bifrost-create-dib-image
This role uses diskimage-builder to create a bootable disk image.
Requirements
This role requires:
- Ansible 1.9
Role Variables
The dib_env_vars are settings for the diskimage-builder environment variables which allow settings to be passed to elements that are being utilized to build a disk image. More information on diskimage-builder can be found at http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/diskimage-builder/. Additionally, an extra_dib_elements setting exists which is a space separated list of elements to incorporate into the image.
dib_env_vars: DIB_CLOUD_INIT_DATASOURCES: "ConfigDrive" ELEMENTS_PATH: "/opt/stack/diskimage-builder/elements" extra_dib_elements: ""
http_boot_folder, deploy_image_filename, and deploy_image all control the final destination of the built image.
http_boot_folder: /httpboot deploy_image_filename: "deployment_image.qcow2" deploy_image: "{{http_boot_folder}}/{{deploy_image_filename}}"
dib_os_element controls which OS will be used to build the image.
dib_os_element: "ubuntu"
Dependencies
dib-utils must be installed from pip for the image creation to work.
