HypervisorSupportMatrix

This is an attempt to help new users decide on a hypervisor based on features that can be controlled through compute.

Whilst the intention is to keep this up to date it was created just after the release of Cactus, so if it says a feature is not possible it may warrant further investigation.

It is also worth noting that the majority of openstack development is done with the KVM/ubuntu and XEN hypervisors. This mans that (currently at least) you are more likely to find community support for issues with these hypervisors.
