GroundZero 0.6.0: cluster mode
Cluster mode: servers named after their BMC, addresses from a pool, and an optional DNS check.
Added
- Clusters: an ESXi config set, an IP range, a DNS domain and a naming rule (
/clusters).- Adding a server names it after its BMC (prefix or suffix stripped, e.g.
idrac-esx01becomesesx01)

- UI: a Clusters page with members, derived names and addresses, DNS status and Verify DNS.
