[dev] [ANNOUNCE] Apache Libcloud 2.6.0 release

[Tomaz Muraus]

Libcloud is a Python library that abstracts away the differences among
multiple cloud provider APIs. It allows users to manage cloud services
(servers, storage, loadbalancers, DNS) offered by many different providers
through a single, unified and easy to use API.

This release includes many new features and improvements. Highlights
include:

* New compute driver for Gridscale.io provider
* New compute driver for Maxihost provider
* Various improvements in the OpenStack compute driver
* Support for https proxies
* Various improvements in the Azure blobs storage driver
* Various improvements to the deploy node functionality and handling of
  unsupported SSH key types
* CloudFlare DNS driver has been updated to use CloudFlare API v4
* and much more.
