Description of the change
Adds initial experimental support for VirtualBox. Currently doesn't work, because VirtualBox doesn't expose an async API. Will work once the Twisted removal is complete. Won't break anything unless users launch with the (undocumented) connection type 'virtualbox'.

Actually, it looks like the twisted removal & virtualbox support may be inextricably linked...

Merged with latest lp:~justin-fathomdb/nova/raw-disk-images (though I'm fighting a mini merge-battle with myself because the code actually depends on the twisted removal)

Twisted has no particular problem talking to a synchronous API. It can simply defer the call to a thread and get a response back as a callback once the call returns. What /is/ difficult is calling Twisted from a strictly synchronous application, but I don't see that as an issue here.
With that in mind, how is it that Twisted removal and VirtualBox support are related?
