The nova debuger functionality was intended to help debugging running process however it has never been reliable due to our use of eventlet and is generally not required when not using eventlet. I.e. you can just run the nova console-scripts form a debugger or add pdb statements as required. As part of the eventlet removal the debugger functionality is removed given its untested and undocumented. Change-Id: I7bf88f06f3d1dbd2c7e342b27a21440a123c631d
