Ironic: implement rescue mode
Implement the rescue() and unrescue() methods in the Ironic virt driver.
rescue() will hash the password via crypt(3) (the format that /etc/shadow uses, to avoid plain text admin passwords in ironic's database) and pass it to the ironic node's instance_info field. It will then call node.set_
unrescue() will simply call node.set_

Whiteboard
The linked Ironic spec has details about the nova changes. As a feature parity blueprint for the Ironic virt driver, we agreed to get this in without a specific nova blueprint. -- mriedem 20161011
I'm going to mark this as blocked for Nova since the Ironic patches are all in merge conflict. -- mriedem 20161227

virt/ironic: Implement rescue and unrescue
We're now past the feature freeze for Ocata so I've deferred this to Pike. -- mriedem 20170128
Re-approved for Pike as a feature parity blueprint. -- mriedem 20170331
I'm deferring this to Queens. The Nova change is abandoned and depends on some changes in Ironic, and we're 2 days from the Pike feature freeze. -- mriedem 20170725
Looks like people from Fujitsu are working on this again so I'll re-approve for Queens as a feature parity blueprint. -- mriedem 20171012
Sorry but we're now past feature freeze for Queens. Please re-propose the spec for Rocky and we'll try to get this merged early in the first milestone. -- mriedem 20180126
Ironic patches were merged. python-ironicclient supporting rescue mode will be released early in Rocky. Then, the nova patch can be merged. -- hshiina 20180131
We discussed this in the nova meeting today and we're re-approving for Rocky as a feature parity blueprint. -- melwitt 20180405
