2017-08-21tools: Add tooling for basic cloud-init performance analysis.Chad Smith
This branch adds cloudinit-analyze into cloud-init proper. It adds an "analyze" subcommand to the cloud-init command line utility for quick performance assessment of cloud-init stages and events. On a cloud-init configured instance, running "cloud-init analyze blame" will now report which cloud-init events cost the most wall time. This allows for quick assessment of the most costly stages of cloud-init. This functionality is pulled from Ryan Harper's analyze work. The cloudinit-analyze main script itself has been refactored a bit for inclusion as a subcommand of cloud-init CLI. There will be a followup branch at some point which will optionally instrument detailed strace profiling, but that approach needs a bit more discussion first. This branch also adds: * additional debugging topic to the sphinx-generated docs describing cloud-init analyze, dump and show as well as cloud-init single usage. * Updates the Makefile unittests target to include cloudinit directory because we now have unittests within that package.
