Debian/Ubuntu packaging files

This patch adds new files and changes existing config files
to add autoconf/automake support for Debian/Ubuntu packaging
files. In other words, this patch adds the support to generate
a .deb package for ginger.

To test it, running in a Debian/Ubuntu system:

./autogen.sh --system
make
make deb

The ginger .deb package file should be generated in the root dir
of the plug-in.

models/ibm_sep.py: adding 'is_feature_available()' method

Adding the is_feature_available method so the SEP feature can be
flagged as 'False' by the Capabilities API if there are no SEP
support in the host.

Adding new API: Capabilities

This backend API tells the caller about the current capabilities
of the Ginger plug-in, making it possible to the UI (or any other
caller) avoid using features/APIs that aren't suitable for the
current host Ginger is running in.

The API model is created by using an array of objects which represents
Ginger features, usually an array of Collection or Resource subclass
instances. For each element, we verify if a method called
'is_feature_available' is implemented. In that case, the availability
of the feature is determined by it. Otherwise, we assume that the feature
is always available. This makes the method optional for each feature to
implement.

Example of output:

$ curl -u danielhb -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json" http://localhost:8010/plugins/ginger/capabilities -X GET
Enter host password for user 'danielhb':
{
"PowerProfiles":false,
"Network":true,
"Sep":true,
"SanAdapters":true,
"Firmware":false,
"Sensors":false,
"Backup":true,
"Users":true
}

Fix delete user return error

If a kimchi user tries to delete a system user that no longer exists,
the error is not propagated to front-end, showing a generic error. This
patch fixes the problem, returning the right error message.

Changing the network interfaces listing

- InterfacesModel now lists all available interfaces in the host,
sorted by interface name.

- InterfaceModel adds a new attribute to the lookup method called
'editable', which points whether the interface can be configured
by the user. The UI should take this parameter into consideration
to disable editing in these interfaces.

- The backend will raise an error if an attempt to edit a
non-editable interface is made by the frontend.

UI: Ginger User Management

This patch added the User Management function to Ginger. "Name",
"Password", "Group" and "Profile" are required for this session. Also,
there are "Add", "Detach" function for user management.

models/interfaces.py: removing ip/netmask on blank input

This patch fixes github #1: https://github.com/kimchi-project/ginger/issues/1

API.json now allows blank ip/netmask values, which will be interpreted
by the backend as a command to remove the current IP configuration.
Note that the ip/netmask validation still exists in the frontend
(form validation) and in the backend.

The lookup function got reworked to show the static ip/netmask
configuration in the case where there isn't an active ip/netmask
in the interface. This is more consistent than the previous
behavior, where the ip/netmask remained blank even after setting
a new static ip/netmask in the case there isn't an active address.
This happens in the case where the ethernet cable isn't plugged
in the interface, for example.

Other changes:

- iface.create(), equivalent of "ifup()", won't be called if
the interface isn't active.
- _rollback_on_failure is now being used to handle the exception
instead of 'conn.changeRollback()'.
