Add Ironic Shellinabox HTTP proxy

Registered by Zhenguo Niu

Currently, Ironic use shellinabox to provide a web serial console, but it's not compatible with nova serial console, to fill the gap, this BP proposes to add a custom HTTP proxy and a new serial console type 'shellinabox', then when get_serial_console with shellinabox console type, the base url will be the new added HTTP proxy.

    [WIP]Add shellinabox console to API

Since there is an API change proposed and this requires integration with Ironic, and we already have a lot of different console type support in Nova, we need a spec for this, see https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/nova-specs/readme.html -- mriedem 20160407

@mriedem I have added API change section in the spec, please help to review https://review.openstack.org/#/c/300582/ , thanks -- zhenguo 20160408
