CloudStack 4.0 test procedure

Test with source code release

This is test procedure for Apache CloudStack 4.0 source release. Everyone is welcome to have a test with the forthcoming 4.0 release.

To setup an environment for CloudStack, usually it will take a while, e.g install a hypervisor host, install Mysql server etc. Here we'll use DevCloud(http://wiki.cloudstack.org/display/COMM/DevCloud) to simplify the test procedure.
