This PR provides a new primary storage volume type called "FiberChannel" that allows access to volumes connected to hosts over fiber channel connections. It requires Multipath to provide path discovery and failover. Second, the PR adds an AdaptivePrimaryDatastoreProvider that abstracts how volumes are managed/orchestrated from the connector to communicate with the primary storage provider, using a ProviderAdapter interface, allowing the code interacting with the primary storage provider API's to be simpler and have no direct dependencies on Cloudstack code. Lastly, the PR provides an implementation of the ProviderAdapter classes for the HP Enterprise Primera line of storage solutions and the Pure Flash Array line of storage solutions.
