This change adds two network boot interfaces, ``http`` and ``http-ipxe``. These interfaces are based upon the underlying PXE boot interface code in ironic, and where this differs is it signals to Ironic that we must do the boot loader needful in terms of telling DHCP to send a URL instead of a filename and IP address for PXE as a starting point. The naming of the interfaces focuses more on the transport mechanism and then specific style. Very similar to existing ``pxe`` and ``ipxe`` interface modeling, except in the ``ipxe`` case, it is more a specific loader and mechanism to be utilized.

Overview
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.
