This patch adds a vagrantfile and ansible playbook that captures the instructions from the ironic developer quickstart. By using 'vagrant up', and configuring your local dev instance to use 192.168.99.11, you should be able to exercise your services locally. Documentation has also been updated.

Ironic
Ironic is an integrated OpenStack project which aims to provision bare metal machines instead of virtual machines, forked from the Nova Baremetal driver. It is best thought of as a bare metal hypervisor API and a set of plugins which interact with the bare metal hypervisors. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI in concert to provision and turn on/off machines, but Ironic also supports vendor-specific plugins which may implement additional functionality.
