Use fabric.contrib.project.rsync_project for transfer of cookbook

[wamcvey]

I've written some additional functionality into my fork of fabric-provision to allow for periodic running of chef-solo as well as to support role definitions. Transferring each cookbook and role file over to each remote host on every invocation is somewhat redundant though, so I was wondering what your opinion would be on using fabric.contrib.project.rsync_project() to synchronize the local and remote sets of files. If you're in favor of it, I will go ahead and make the change in my fork, and will send you another pull request for the roles support, the 'runchef' task (to run chef-solo, minus the initial installation), and the rsync file transfer.

Hi

I was actually thinking of adding rsync_project as the preferred way of transferring all the chef files over to a host but just didn't get around to do it. If you do it, I'm very much up for pulling the changes back in.
