[FLINK-3867] Flink-VM: Vagrant/Ansible based VMs to easily setup Flink

[Julius Neuffer]

Hi,

I put together some Ansible scripts to automatically setup VMs running
Flink [1]. Might that be useful for the Flink project?

I already created a pull request [2]. Two of the CI builds failed. The
reasons for the failure, however, seem to be unrelated to the flink-vm
module.

It would be awesome to get some feedback regarding flink-vm. And, if there
is interest among you developers to add flink-vm to the Flink project,
could you point out on how to proceed with the pull request?

Best regards,
Julius Neuffer

Hey Julius,

You have to wait or find someone to review it. The PR looks
interesting. The big question though is that who is going to maintain
it if we merge it.

An alternative would be to keep it in your GitHub repository and we
link it from the project page.
