    Move logging config options into the log module
    
    We learned a lesson in Nova - it's best to declare and use config
    options within a single module if possible. Globally declared and
    use config options grow like weeds and it becomes harder to find out
    if, where and how individual options are used.
    
    Strangely, in cfg itself, we randomly declare a bunch of logging options
    which are only used within the openstack.common.log module - let's move
    the options there and remove the CommonConfigOpts class before they
    become part of the API we commit to when oslo-config is released.
    
    A minor detail in the patch - the logfile and logdir options are already
    deprecated in favour of log_file and log_dir, but we never got around to
    removing all other traces of the deprecated options.

    Revert "Support lookup of value using "group.key""
    
    This reverts commit 525ac47.
    
    There are already two ways to reference an option in a group:
    
      CONF.group.key
      CONF[group].key
    
    Adding a third variant doesn't seem ideal. Also, for the specific case
    of LazyPluggable in Nova, we can easily just pass an optional config
    group name to the constructor.

    Support lookup of value using "group.key"
    
    Let us check if the opt_name has a '.', if it does then split it
    into a group/key and try lookup using that combination. Since
    LazyPluggable uses "CONF[self.__pivot]" if we just add this
    capability to cfg, we get "LazyPluggable doesn't support
    option groups" for free.

    Fix set_default() with boolean CLI options
    
    Porting to argparse broke set_default() with boolean CLI options. The
    new test case shows this borkage.
    
    The issue is that, by default, argparse differs subtly from optparse in
    its handling of defaults for boolean options. Compare:
    
      >>> p = optparse.OptionParser()
      >>> p.add_option('--foo', action='store_true')
      >>> p.add_option('--bar', action='store_true', default=False)
      >>> p.parse_args([])
      (<Values at 0x7f28aba066c8: {'foo': None, 'bar': False}>, [])
    
    to:
    
      >>> p = argparse.ArgumentParser()
      >>> p.add_argument('--foo', action='store_true')
      >>> p.add_argument('--bar', action='store_true', default=False)
      >>> p.add_argument('--blaa', action='store_true', default=None)
      >>> p.parse_args([])
      Namespace(bar=False, blaa=None, foo=False)
    
    i.e. unless you specify a default for a boolean option, optparse
    defaults to None whereas argparse defaults to False. To get the
    same optparse behaviour with argparse, you need default=None.

    Improve cfg's argparse sub-parsers support
    
    In order for sub-parsers to be useful, you need some way of knowing
    which sub-parser was chosen during argument parsing. It's pretty obvious
    from the current sub-parsers test case that we don't have a convenient
    interface for this.
    
    One way of doing it is to use the 'dest' argument when adding
    sub-parsers:
    
      >>> subparsers = parser.add_subparsers(dest='cmd')
      >>> subparsers.add_parser('a')
      >>> subparsers.add_parser('b')
      >>> parser.parse_args(['a'])
      Namespace(cmd='a')
    
    The most sensible way to map this into cfg concepts is to register
    sub-parsers as an Opt. This way, we can make name and argument values
    of the sub-parser as an attribute on the ConfigOpts object:
    
      >>> def add_parsers(subparsers):
      ...     a = subparsers.add_parser('a')
      ...     a.add_argument('id')
      ...     b = subparsers.add_parser('b')
      ...
      >>> CONF.register_cli_opt(SubCommandOpt('cmd', handler=add_parsers))
      True
      >>> CONF(['a', '10'])
      >>> CONF.cmd.name, CONF.cmd.id
      ('a', '10')
    
    The handler method is a bit awkward, but each time cfg is to parse
    command line args it takes all the registered opts and creates a new
    argparse parser. So we need to be able to re-add the sub-parsers each
    time.

    Add support for positional arguments
    
    argparse makes it awkward to implement the current cfg API where we
    simply return the leftover arguments to the caller.
    
    Very few cfg users actually rely on this functionality and for those
    cases it probably makes more sense for them to explicitly register
    positional arguments or sub-parsers.
    
    Add support for positional arguments via a 'required' Opt attribute:
    
      opt = StrOpt('foo', positional=True)
      conf.register_cli_opt(opt)
      conf(['bar'])
      conf.foo == 'bar'

    Use stock argparse behaviour for optional args
    
    optparse would print "Options" but argparse prints "optional arguments".
    
    The default argparse behaviour is fine, let's stick with that.

    Use stock argparse --usage behaviour
    
    optparse would substitute the program name for %prog, but argparse
    requires %(prog)s. Also, optparse would print 'Usage:' whereas
    argparse prints 'usage:'.
    
    Neither optparse behaviour that's worth retaining, let's just use
    the default argparse behaviour.

    argparse support for cfg
    
    * openstack/common/cfg.py
      Optparse is fading out since python 2.7, this
      patch will help openstack/common work on more
      advanded version of python(argparse).
      Now, disable_interspersed_args() has no effect.
      Added new method add_cli_subparsers, return
      argparse  subparser, for  usages  such  as
      subcommand.
    
    * tests/unit/test_cfg.py
      SubcommandTestCase added.
      Disabled test_disable_interspersed_args test entry
      for happiness of tox, temporarily.
      Modified test_help for port of argparse.
    
    * tools/pip-requires

    Allow set_default and set_override to use None
    
    The current implementation interprets set_default('foo', None) and
    set_override('foo', None) as 'clear the existing default or override',
    which makes it impossible to override a value with None.
    
    This patch adds support for overriding with a None value by adding
    a special internal class. set_override('foo', None) will now override
    the existing value with None. This is a slight change to the existing
    behavior, so this patch adds two calls for the old functionality of
    clearing defaults and overrides. Example syntax for the new calls
    are shown below:
    
    conf.clear_default('foo')
    conf.clear_override('foo')
    
    The patch also updates the tests to reflect the change in functionality
    and adds new tests to verify the new functionality.

    Add import_opt() method to ConfigOpts
    
    Related to blueprint cfg-global-object
    
    When using the global config object pattern, you often have modules
    which define options that are referenced in other options.
    
    So, for example if module A defined option 'foo' and module be needed
    to reference that option, you might do:
    
      import A
      print CONF.foo
    
    However, this makes it entirely unclear to the casual reader why
    module A was imported.
    
    Nova has a flags.DECLARE() function that helps with this problem
    by allowing you to do:
    
      flags.DECLARE('foo', 'A')
    
    The function simply imports module A and checks that the 'foo'
    option is now defined in the global config object.
    
    This is fine, but it is also implicit that this function applies
    to the global config object. Instead, let's do the following:
    
      CONF.import_opt('foo', 'A')

    cfg: move constructor args to __call__() args
    
    In order to effectively use a global ConfigOpts object, you
    need to be able to initialize the global object with none of
    the information we currently require at construction.
    
    By moving those constructor args to the __call__() method,
    we enable the global object usage model but also make the API
    generally more flexible. For example, you can now reset the
    object and re-use it for parsing a different set of config
    files with the same options.
    
    There are a couple of other minor behavior changes as a
    result:
    
      - print_usage() and print_help() no longer works before
        the object has been called to parse options
    
      - registration of duplicate short options are no longer
        detected until the options are parsed
    
      - the --config-file and --config-dir options aren't
        registered until just before parsing the options since
        the default set of config files can be specified at
        that time
    
      - find_file() can't be used until after the options have
        been parsed, again because of the late registration
        of --config-file and --config-dir
    
    Finally, an unregister_opt() method is added to support
    the re-registeration of the --config-file and --config-dir
    options.

       register_cli_opt() clear the empty cache
    
     - use @__clear_cache on set_default() and set_override() since
       these are just used by the unit tests and doing so allows us
       to kill _remove_from_cache()
    
     - use @__clear_cache on reset() too
    
     - remove recursion from _get() and the substitute param
    
     - just use (group_name, opt_name) as the cache key

    Add the Mapping interface to cfg.ConfigOpts
    
    Implements blueprint cfg-mapping interface
    
    With cfg, option values are accessed via attributes on ConfigOpts
    objects e.g.
    
      conf = ConfigOpts()
      conf.register_opt(StrOpt('foo'))
      conf()
      print conf.foo
    
    One use case that isn't easily supported with option values represented
    this way is iterating over all the registered options. Standard
    interfaces for listing attributes on an object aren't suitable because
    they will list more than just the options.
    
    For this use case alone, it's worth having ConfigOpts implement the
    mapping interface. That way we can do e.g.
    
      for opt, value in conf.items():
          print "Option %s = %s" % (opt, value)
    
    It's interesting to compare argparse's approach to this problem - option
    values are attributes on a Namespace object which has no attributes or
    methods to pollute the namespace of option names. This is a nice
    approach, but would mean that we would be passing around both a
    ConfigOpts object and a Namespace object. That's a bit too much overhead,
    and the mapping interface provides a usable workaround where there is a
    conflict.

    Add support to cfg for disabling interspersed args
    
    Implements blueprint cfg-disable-interspersed-args
    
    Nova currently relies on cfg being implemented with optparse because it
    uses optparse's disable_interspersed_args()
    
    The use case for this is if you do:
    
      $> nova-manage --verbose create --project foo --user bar
    
    you want invoking ConfigOpts() to return:
    
      ['create', '--project', 'foo', '--user', 'bar']
    
    as the "extra" args rather than aborting when it doesn't recognize the
    --project arg.
    
    This is a reasonable use case for cfg to support and it should just have
    {disable,enable}_interspersed_args() methods.
    
    If we ever switch from optparse to argparse, we'll do something like this:
    
      parser.add_argument('--verbose')
      ...
      parser.add_argument(
        'extra_args',
        nargs=argparse.REMAINDER if disable_interspersed_args else '*')
      ...
      ns = parser.parse_args(...)
      extra_args = ns.extra_args
    
    i.e. we will need an 'extra_args' multi-value positional argument in any
    case and we'll just pass nargs=REMAINDER if we want trailing options to
    be included in the extra args.

    Add new cfg module
    
    As described here:
    
      http://wiki.openstack.org/CommonConfigModule
    
    The module implements an API for defining configuration options and
    reading values for those options that a user may have set in a config
    file or on the command line.
    
    The module is successfully in use in both Nova and Glance. Some work
    remains in Nova to switch from using it under a gflags compatible
    shim layer, but Glance is using it fully.
    
    There doesn't appear to be any blockers to other projects moving over
    to it fairly easily. Swift would perhaps be the next project to tackle.
    
    Just to go through potential future compatibility concerns:
    
      - Nova (the scroundrel) hackily uses the private ConfigOpts::_oparser
        in order to disable interspersed args. This was just for nova-manage
        and can probably be resolved some other way. In any case, Nova
        shouldn't switch to openstack-common's cfg API until it removes this
        hack.
    
      - the CommonConfigOpts subclass set of logging related options is
        perhaps assuming too much about what configuration options should
        be common across all the projects. However, it seems a fairly sane
        set and the worst that can happen is that projects avoid using it.
    
      - the parameters to the Opt constructor fairly closely mirror
        optparse, but they're fairly generic and shouldn't prevent us from
        switching to e.g. argparse
    
      - stuff like %prog expansion in the ConfigOpt's usage ctor param is a
        similar concern, but it's a very minor concern.
    
      - find_config_files() search path is perhaps too much policy for
        openstack-common; however, it is probably as generic as it could
        be and projects which need a different policy can just not use
        the function
    
    On the whole, I think we're in good shape wrt future compatibility.
