This backend daemon for instance import and export will be used to
transfer instance data to other machines. It is implemented in a generic
way to support different ways of data input and output. The third-party
program “socat”, which is already used by the KVM hypervisor abstraction,
is used to connect to remote machines using SSL/TLS. After starting the
child processes in a separate process group, the import/export daemon
monitors their output and updates a status file regularily. This status
file can then be read by ganeti-noded (not in this patch).

Three I/O methods are supported: Raw disk, file and script. Each of these
can be used for import and export.

Similar to daemon-util, an incomplete set of tests written in Bash is
included.

Two future enhancements are planned:
- Run parts of the command chain as a dedicated user (privilege
  separation).
- Currently users of this daemon have to poll the status file while data
  is transferred. This is inefficient and creates unnecessary delays. By
  adding “dd” into the chain and sending it SIGUSR1 regularily, we can get
  some statistics, optimize the polling frequenc and even provide the user
  with an ETA (which isn't available with all current methods to
  import/export instance data).

This patch updates the docstrings in tools/ (mostly in lvmstrap, which
is very very old code-base) and then enabled the tools in this directory
for 'make apidoc' too.

epydoc seems to be mightily confused by decorators and how they change
functions (it starts mixing the parameters of the decorated function
into the decorator itself); so we want it to parse only and not look at
the objects themselves.

Currently the temporary directory used for modules is under the current
directory; this patch changes it so a temp directory is used; so we
could build the apidocs with a R/O filesystem.

The patch adds the apidoc target and the epydoc config file for it. Note
that this is for epydoc 3.0 and that it will put the docs into
./doc/api/.

The patch also adds a new .gitignore rule for the auto-generated rapi
fragment.
