This change completes a long standing TODO in the libvirt driver where volume drivers had previously been loaded at startup. While quick this can result in drivers being dropped from the resulting list on hosts that don't support the underlying connector protocols as checked in os-brick. We should instead load and cache these drivers on-demand ensuring the same instance is reused by repeat callers to _get_volume_driver. An additional TODO is left in place to make this dict configurable in the future, allowing drivers to be replaced by different volume driver implementations. An example being the replacment of the os-brick `iscsi` volume driver with a native `iscsi` QEMU driver. Change-Id: If02a263055376442a116d00c18a1599b436f21d2 |

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:
