Designate resources

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/heat/+spec/heat-designate-resource

This blueprint adds heat resource plug-ins for OpenStack DNS as a service (designate).

Problem description

OpenStack provides DNS as a service (designate) and more details are available at wiki https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Designate

In heat, resource plug-ins are not available for designate service. And this blueprint is created to provide required plug-ins for designate service.

Proposed change

Designate service provides v1 and v2 APIs[1] and it’s python client[2] provides support only for v1. So in this blueprint, v1 support is added with following resources.
