Lee Yarwood e906a8c0ec nova-manage: Introduce volume show, refresh, get_connector commands
Add a combination of commands to allow users to show existing stashed
connection_info for a volume attachment and update volume attachments
with fresh connection_info from Cinder by recreating the attachments.

Unfortunately we don't have an easy way to access host connector
information remotely (i.e. over the RPC API), meaning we need to also
provide a command to get the compute specific connector information
which must be run on the compute node that the instance is located on.

A number of commands have been managed to ``nova-manage`` to help update
stale volume attachment connection info for a given volume and instance.
* The ``nova-manage volume_attachment show`` command can be used to show
the current volume attachment information for a given volume and
instance.
* The ``nova-manage volume_attachment get_connector`` command can
be used to get updated host connector for the localhost.
* Finally, the ``nova-manage volume_attachment refresh`` command can be
used to update the volume attachment with this updated connection
information.
