Matt Riedemann 02a82c41f9 Add release note for force live migration allocations
When forcing a destination host during live migration, conductor
bypasses the scheduler, performs some pre-migration checks and then
casts to the specified destination compute host directly.

With change I40b5af5e85b1266402a7e4bdeb3705e1b0bd6f3b we are still
bypassing the scheduler but conductor will attempt to allocate
resources against the specified destination host, which could fail
and result in the live migration failing even though the force flag
was specified in the API.

This change simply adds a release note for the new behavior which
was missing from the original fix.

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:

Developers

For information on how to contribute to Nova, please see the contents of the CONTRIBUTING.rst.

Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file, and pass all unit tests.
