Matt Riedemann 3dbb0c4c57 api-ref: document ordering for instance actions and events
Whenever I use the os-instance-actions API I have to look at
the DB API source code to figure out the sort order of the
resulting instanceActions and each action's events, which
is desc(created_at) in both cases (and desc(id) but that should
not matter here since the id is not exposed in the API).

This change mentions the resulting sort order of those fields
in the API reference so I can stop looking at source code.

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
