The biggest things here are:
* move doc/sources/*/README.rst to doc/rtd/topics/datasources
This gives each datasource a page in the rtd docs, which make
it easier to read.
* consistently use the same header style throughout.
As suggested at
http://thomas-cokelaer.info/tutorials/sphinx/rest_syntax.html
use:
# with overline, for parts
* with overline, for chapters
=, for sections
-, for subsections
^, for subsubsections
“, for paragraphs
Also, move and re-format vendor-data documentation to rtd.

This adds some function to the generator to maintain the presense of a
flag file '/run/cloud-init/enabled' indicating that cloud-init is enabled.
Then, only run the dhclient hooks if on Azure and cloud-init is enabled.
The test for is_azure currently only checks to see that the board vendor
is Microsoft, not actually that we are on azure. Running should not be
harmful anywhere, other than slowing down dhclient.
The value of this additional code is that then dhclient having run
does not task the system with the load of cloud-init.
Additionally, some changes to config are done here.
* rename 'dhclient_leases' to 'dhclient_lease_file'
* move that to the datasource config (datasource/Azure/dhclient_lease_file)
Also, it removes the config in config/cloud.cfg that set agent_command
to __builtin__. This means that by default cloud-init still needs
the agent installed. The suggested follow-on improvement is to
use __builtin__ if there is no walinux-agent installed.

It is more efficient and cross-distribution safe to use the hooks function
from dhclient to obtain the Azure endpoint server (DHCP option 245).
This is done by providing shell scritps that are called by the hooks
infrastructure of both dhclient and NetworkManager. The hooks then
invoke 'cloud-init dhclient-hook' that maintains json data
with the dhclient options in
/run/cloud-init/dhclient.hooks/<interface>.json .
The azure helper then pulls the value from
/run/cloud-init/dhclient.hooks/<interface>.json file(s). If that file does
not exist or the value is not present, it will then fall back to the
original method of scraping the dhcp client lease file.

See the added doc/sources/azure/README.rst for why this is necessary.
Essentially, we now are doing the following in the get_data() method
of azure datasource to publish this NewHostname:
hostname NewHostName
ifdown eth0;
ifup eth0
