Surya Seetharaman 98163f98b7 Marker reset option for nova-manage map_instances
Currently nova-manage map_instances uses a marker set-up by which repeated
runs of the command will start from where the last run finished. Even
deleting the cell with the instance_mappings will not remove the marker
since the marker mapping has a NULL cell_mapping field. There needs to be
a way to reset this marker so that the user can run map_instances from the
beginning instead of the map_instances command saying "all instances are
already mapped" as is the current behavior.

Currently the ``nova-manage cell_v2 map_instances`` command uses a marker
setup by which repeated runs of the command will start from where the last
run finished, by default. A ``--reset`` option has been added to this command
by which the marker can be reset and users can start the process from the
beginning if needed, instead of the default behavior.
