Allow ironic_ipxe to serve instance images

Browse Source 
Ironic provides a feature to allow instance images to be served from a
local HTTP server [1]. This is the same server used for PXE images with
iPXE. This does not work currently because the ironic_ipxe container
does not have access to /var/lib/ironic/images (ironic docker volume),
where the images are cached. Note that to make use of this feature, the
following is required in ironic.conf:

[agent]
image_download_source = http

This change fixes the issue by giving ironic_ipxe container access to
the ironic volume.
