[ovirt-users] Ovirt 4, the missing python sdk

I just generated the python API with the cmdline tools.

I tend to use docker with random things like this from the internet, but
with docker installed this will generate a python version of the api.

docker run --rm -v ${PWD}:/local swaggerapi/swagger-codegen-cli generate \
    -c /local/swagger.json \
    -l python \
    -o /local/out/

to a folder called local/out
