[PATCH] new feature: automatic services for hosts

[Ignacio Goyret]

Hi all,
The attached patch is something that I've been using for a while
without problems. Of course, all appropriate disclaimers apply.

What does it do?

The patch adds a new directive "services" to the "host" definitions.
This new directive lists one or more "service" templates which
are used to automatically create "service" definitions for
the host.

The following sequence:

    define host{
        host_name         bogus
        address           192.168.1.254
        services          template-check-disk-sda
        ...
    }

is exactly equivalent to the following sequence:

    define host{
        host_name         bogus
        address           192.168.1.254
        ...
    }
    define service {
        host_name         bogus
        use               template-check-disk-sda
    }

I don't particularly like the location where the automatically
created services are instantiated. If someone has a better idea,
including how to deal with host templates, I'm all ears.
May be it could be handled better as an step before resolving.

Enjoy!
