Add a simple ghost VM finder

This simple script will show you where you have qemu processes running
that are no longer managed from nova. If you find these you need to
alert the customers, who may still be using this VM. Ghost VMs use
compute/memory resources on your compute hosts, so it's a good idea to
find and remove them.

+#!/usr/local/bin/ansible-playbook
+# This playbook looks for "ghost" VMs which are qemu processes
+# that are running but that have been deleted from nova.
+# These can occur as a result of a failed migration or a bug
+# in nova or in your nova backend. "ghost" VMs use system resources
+# on your compute hosts and it's possible that your customers are
+# still using them via a floating-ip but have lost ability
+# to manage them.
+#
+# This script assumes that you have an openrc file in /root/openrc
+# on the ansible host where you are running this from.
