Richard Pioso d75fecc974 Add 'hardware type' for Dell EMC iDRACs
The ironic project is engaged in a driver composition reform [0] which
introduces dynamic drivers. That reform places hardware vendors in
charge of defining a new form of drivers for their hardware. The new
form is called 'hardware type'. The reform will deprecate [1] the
existing ironic drivers, which are now referred to as 'classic drivers'.

This change adds a single new 'hardware type', 'idrac', for servers
controlled by Dell EMC integrated Dell Remote Access Controllers
(iDRAC).

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.
