Yannig 5d0805b25a Add Nagios livestatus inventory plugin. (#12342)
* Add Nagios livestatus inventory plugin.

* Add new capabilities for the nagios_livestatus inventory:
- host_field: set the name returned (default: 'name')
- group_field: set the field used for group (default: 'groups')
- host_filter: filter host using this filter (default: None)

To be more consistent, prefix was renamed into var_prefix.

* Fix py34 runtests errors against print call.

inventory

Inventory scripts allow you to store your hosts, groups, and variables in any way you like. Examples include discovering inventory from EC2 or pulling it from Cobbler. These could also be used to interface with LDAP or database.

chmod +x an inventory plugin and either name it /etc/ansible/hosts or use ansible -i /path/to/inventory/script. You might also need to copy a configuration file with the same name and/or set environment variables, the scripts or configuration files have more details.
