Dmitry Tantsur c9e079da68 Rework Bare Metal service overview in the install guide
Currently we have a detailed explanation of how ironic is architected,
but it resides in the user guide for some reason. This change moves
relevant bits to the install guide to the existing "Bare Metal service
overview" section. The text is cleaned up (e.g. s/ironic/Bare Metal/)
and ordered to simplify reading. A link to ironic-ui is added.

The user guide still contains the bits that are helpful for users
to understand the bare metal deployment process.

Ironic

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.

Ironic is distributed under the terms of the Apache License, Version 2.0. The full terms and conditions of this license are detailed in the LICENSE file.
