James Shubin b19583e7d3 lang: Initial implementation of the mgmt language
This is an initial implementation of the mgmt language. It is a
declarative (immutable) functional, reactive, domain specific
programming language. It is intended to be a language that is:

* safe
* powerful
* easy to reason about

With these properties, we hope this language, and the mgmt engine will
allow you to model the real-time systems that you'd like to automate.

This also includes a number of other associated changes. Sorry for the
large size of this patch.

Status:

Mgmt is a next generation automation tool. It has similarities to other tools in the configuration management space, but has a fast, modern, distributed systems approach. The project contains an engine and a language. Please have a look at an introductory video or blog post.

Mgmt is a fairly new project. It is usable today, but not yet feature complete. With your help you'll be able to influence our design and get us to 1.0 sooner! Interested developers should read the quick start guide.
