The rax inventory plugin provides a way to discovery inventory in the
Rackspace Public Cloud by way of pyrax, the official SDK. Grouping will
be done if a group:name is found in the instance metadata. When a single
host is queried all the instance details are returned with a rax_
prefix.
Because inventory plugins cannot take extra arguments, ENV variables
must be set to point to the pyrax compatible credentials file and the
region to query against.
