This patch introduces standard Redfish virtual media boot support to ironic. The patch implements basic boot interface features along with devstack plugin support for virtual media boot. Functionally, redfish boot interface supports the same set of features as PXE. Unlike other virtual media boot implementations (e.g. iLo), this patch does not require user-built deploy/rescue/boot ISO images for virtual media boot. Instead, ironic will build necessary images out of common kernel/ramdisk pair (though user needs to provide ESP image).

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.
