[OpenStack-DefCore] Recommended tempest.conf settings

Hi Catherine,

The script should work for any cloud, as long as it gets the credentials
for it and an identity endpoint. It's not tied to any specific distribution.

As Chris was pointing that one of the goals was to have that into
RefStack (quoting)

>>> One of our stated goals is to only need to provide an endpoint and

>>> make that a goal we’ll reach further down the line. Optimistically next
>>> year, but
>>> discoverability and configuration is an open problem.

I was thinking about having it integrated or at least used as a base of
what it could do. If you have any concerns we could make it optional and
as Gema has also volunteered to do testing I think it'd be a nice
addition. Please get back to me if you have any doubt or comment ;)

Thanks!

Daniel
