Junjie Mao d776e4ad47 config_tools: packaging config tool scripts for easier import
The next-generation ACRN configurator will embed a Python interpreter built
in WebAssembly (WASM) for executing Python scripts for manipulating
scenario schemas and validating user data. It is quite tedious to
separately import multiple modules there due to the restriction of that
Python environment. The recommended approach is to package those
modules (e.g. as a *.wic file) so that all modules can be imported in one
shot.

This patch adds the files needed to package the scripts. The package is
solely used for the configurator to import and not intended to be used by
end users for any purpose.

v1 -> v2:

  * Fix the license header of __init__.py
  * Move patterns of ignored files to the top-level .gitignore

Supporting libraries of ACRN configuration toolset

This package contains the libraries supporting ACRN configuration toolset, including:

  • The manipulators and validators of scenario schemas or XMLs
  • The generator of guest ACPI tables

The main objective of this package is to ease the import of the supporting libraries in the ACRN configurator which uses a Python interpreter built in WebAssembly (WASM). This package is thus NOT intended to be used by users; invoke the Python scripts directly if needed.
