Jay Dobies e305f61b18 Fix tuskar docs building
Fixed a problem with the docs not even building and cleaned up the
sphinx warnings. Changed the directory structure to more closely
resemble other OpenStack projects. This doesn't address any of the
content yet, simply the structure and ability to build.

Debugging with iPython

Requirements

$ yum install python-ipython
$ cd tuskar
$ find . | grep no-global-site-packages.txt | xargs rm

The 'find' will allow you to import 'global' packages in Tox.

Debugging

Place these two lines in the place you want to debug/drop to shell:

import IPython
IPython.embed()

Then start Tuskar as usual and do a GET/POST/etc. Once the code execution hits these two lines, you will be dropped into the iPython shell and you will have access to all local variables and the env defined in the context of where you placed that two lines.

Tweaks

ipythonrc -> Colors on console, tab completion for methods and more ;-)
