This deprecates the TypeAffinityFilter. This filter, which is really an anti-affinity filter for flavors, attempts to ensure that no two flavors show up on the same host. However, to do this it relies on the flavors.id primary key, which is subject to "change" if/when the admin deletes and recreates a flavor (this is how Horizon allows you to 'edit' a flavor). When you do that, you have a new flavor with a new id primary key and the filter will not know the difference. So you could really end up with more than one m1.large instance on the same host, which defeats the purpose of the filter. This filter is also problematic for blueprint put-host-manager-instance-info-on-a-diet because in that blueprint we want to stop sending full instance objects over RPC from all compute services to the scheduler just to track affinity and anti-affinity. All we really need for the ServerGroupAffinityFilter and ServerGroupAntiAffinityFilter is the list of instance uuids on a host, not the full object. If we can get rid of TypeAffinityFilter, we can change the compute<>scheduler RPC calls to just pass the list of instance uuids for update_instance_info rather than sending an InstanceList.
