Kevin_Zheng e2e372b2b1 Allow run metadata api per cell
Adds configuration option ``[api]/local_metadata_per_cell``
to allow user run Nova metadata API service per cell. Doing
this can avoid query API DB for instance information each
time an instance query for its metadata.

Implements blueprint run-meta-api-per-cell

Synopsis

nova-api-metadata [options]

Description

nova-api-metadata is a server daemon that serves the Nova Metadata API. This daemon routes database requests via the nova-conductor service, so there are some considerations about using this in a multi-cell layout <cells-v2-layout-metadata-api>.
