Add a generalized wait command
Registered by

OSC has --wait options for a couple of existing commands that will poll the API for a specific status. This would be useful to generalize into a wait action and allow the user to specify additional conditions.

Whiteboard
An equivalent to the server create --wait option might look like this:
openstack server wait --timeout 30 --status active <server-name>
Additional options for other conditions can be defined as makes sense for each supported object.
It might be handy to have a --failure <status> argument that is action append to add multiple statuses that indicate failure and will exit != 0
