Posix mode allows the parse to:
- split by whitespace but value="between quotes are retained or enclose"
- quotes are stripped out

The old way of parsing involved complex object loading and traversing, in
new implementation json is used directly and authenticated requests via port
8080 making use of api and secret keys are recommended.
All args on shell are created in {"key": "value"} pairs which are used to create
url with &key=value. This way maps can be passed as args, example:
create networkoffering name=unique-name guestiptype=Isolated traffictype=GUEST
supportedservices=Dhcp,Dns serviceproviderlist[0].service=Dhcp
serviceproviderlist[0].provider=VirtualRouter serviceproviderlist[1].service=Dns
serviceproviderlist[1].provider=VirtualRouter
Added new conf variables:
- timeout: the no. of seconds after which an async job query timeouts
default value of 3600 seconds
- asycnblock: if user wants their async commands to be tracked
default value is 'true', if set to false, user can query using jobid which is
returned by the async command and queried using:
query asyncjobresult jobid=<jobid>

Makes commands pipe-able like bash.
Example while inside shell:
> list virtualmachines | grep id
> list accounts | more

- fix weird autocompletion bug which won't let you enter the letter b [0]
- make set params, api and secret key vars lowercase
- use partition to get strings for do_set
- while installing, check and only then add readline (requires gcc and can fail)
- show monkey prompt by default, let users change if needed

Use partition instead of splitting on whitespace. This is little robust, but
may still fail for parameters whose values have whitespaces such as names etc.

- autocompletions for help docs
- more verbose doc strings with __doc__ import from the module and list of
required args and all args

cached verb dictionary stores the following as a list:
- name of the API
- params (list of args)
- docstring

Search verb in apis takes more time than filtering out apis that start with
that verb from the grammar.

cloudmonkey
-----------
Apache CloudStack's very own monkey powered command line interface based on Marvin.
The neglected robot and monkey should rule the world!
Features:
- it's a shell and also a terminal tool
- scalable to find and run old and new APIs
- intuitive grammar and verbs
- autocompletion (functional hack)
- shell execution using ! or shell
- cfg support: user defined variables, like prompt, ruler, host, port etc.
- history
- colors
- dynamic API loading and rule generation
- leverages Marvin to get latest autogenerated APIs
- emacs like shortcuts on prompt
- uses apiKey and secretKey to interact with mgmt server
- logs all client commands
- PEP-8 compliant code
TODOs:
- Reverse search
- Fix input and output processing
