    servicegroup: remove the zookeeper driver
    
    We have had a "untested and risky to use in production" log warning
    message for this driver since Kilo, it is currently broken (see below),
    there are no obviously active users or contributors, and we are planning
    on enabling Zookeeper usage by adopting the tooz library.
    
    bug #1443910 shows that the driver fails to load because eventlet 0.17
    broke evzookeeper by moving _SocketDuckForFd from eventlet.greenio to
    eventlet.greenio.py2 in commit 449c90a. The 0.17 release was in Feb,
    2015. The evzookeeper library hasn't been updated since Sep 2012 and the
    sole maintainer is the original author of the zookeeper servicegroup
    driver.
    
    The tooz driver spec - Ibf70c2dbe308fc8e4dd277d8c75c4445b3dfce90 -
    proposes a formal deprecation period for the zk driver, during which
    existing zk driver users are encouraged to move to tooz. However, given
    the state of the zk driver, we must conclude that there are no existing
    users who need a graceful migration path. Removing the driver will
    avoid potential confusion for new users and simplify the path to
    adopting tooz.

Title:
  Zookeeper servicegroup driver crashes

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Zookeeper driver is based on zookeeper and evzookeeper modules. The latter
  is the source of nasty crash, which is well visible on nova conductor. To
  reproduce it is enough to enable zookeeper in nova.conf, provide
  configuration for the zookeeper service address and stack the thing. The
  traceback:

  The root cause of the problem is the change, which have a place in module
  eventlet 0.17, which evzookeeper module is depend on. Because of the change the way eventlet.greenio is exposed there is no way to reach the class
  _SocketDuckForFd other way than explicitly importing it via
  eventlet.greenio.py2 module.

  Definitely solution for this problem might go upstream to the evzookeeper
  author, however the development of evzookeeper module seems stalled (no
  activity for last 2 years), maybe it's worth to consider changing the zk
  driver implementation to use different zk module (kazoo seems quite active).

  Downgrading eventlet was no option for me, since keystone requires version
  >=0.17.
