LIBCLOUD-252 : Implement a local storage driver
The idea is to provide a 'local' storage driver. This will provide
developers with the ability to implement storage features with libcloud such
that it can be deployed on a cloud platform or over local file-systems (for eg:
over a local disk or a n/w mounted storage). This will allow for hybrid
deployments where the storage layer can be altered via config changes.
In addition, this also let's users play around with the library without the
need to access a cloud system
A sample implementation could
* use the 'key' argument as the base file-system where the objects will be
stored
* use a file-system hierarchy to represent containers and objects
