[ixpmanager] Docker and IXP Manager

[Barry O'Donovan]

As the IXP Manager ecosystem grows, it becomes harder to maintain
ubiquitous development environments for coding, testing and
demonstrating IXP Manager.

Especially for emulating switches, route servers, graphing and tools
such as Bird's Eye. Docker is ideally suited to solving these issues as
well as providing the perfect environment for IXP Manager workshops.


To that end, we have creating two Docker systems.

1) The first is ideally suited for demonstrations, 'just playing' with
IXP Manager and workshops:

2) The second is specifically targeted at IXP Manager developers:

These are in addition to the installation scripts and Vagrant:
