Saltstack support

[loque1]

Since blueprint is python based would it not be prudent to offer a way to generate saltstack yaml states

I would submit that Ansible would also be awesome, but at some point some of this becomes just too difficult to execute, because methodologies and philosophies of these different technologies are just really so very different. I do think that it is a great idea though.

I am having a look at the code now and from the looks of it I will have to implement a new frontend
and add code to blueprint-create blueprint-rules blueprint-show init.py. Not sure when I will get around to it but If I want it bad enough I will have to get my hands dirty.

@loque1 @szaydel I would love to support both of those tools but don't have the bandwidth or expertise to do a good job myself. I would happily, happily merge patches, though.

@loque1 you're right it's basically a frontend and wiring it up. I think the rules frontend is the smallest and therefore probably the best starting point.

@rcrowley - It is no doubt a great to have expansion to an already great feature set, but sure not some trivial amount of work.

For Ansible, take a look at https://enroll.sh, which was inspired by Blueprint's concept!
