Eliminate the RAX_REGION environment variable; iterate through all regions available to an account and present servers in region groups; default to using server name to identify servers in groups; set ansible_ssh_host key for each server; utilize the _meta key to provide all the hostvars for each server; all grouping by web, db, sql, lb, app based on server name; pretty print JSON output for some human-readable inventory action

Add set_setting to alleviate requirement that ~/.pyrax.cfg exists

Add regions as a optional env var to narrow our inventory scope

Clean up
