Gorka Eguileor 89f6291ee3 Add backup restoration cancellation support
Backups can be cancelled by force deleting the in-progress backup, but
there is no mechanism to delete the restoring backups.

We will now monitor the status of the backup and on any status change
will abort the restoration and change the volume status to error.

The reason to diverge from the backup creation cancellation
implementation (deleting the new resource) is that the restoring may be
done into an already existing volume and deleting it is not feasable for
the user, for example when an instance is booted from a Cinder volume
and there's a license linked to the System ID.

Cinder backup drivers may now raise BackupRestoreCancel in `restore`
method when a restoring operation is cancelled.

Support backup restore cancelation by changing the backup status to
anything other than `restoring` using `cinder backup-reset-state`.
