Matt Riedemann 8be8d02aa7 Fix and update compute schedulers config guide
There were several things wrong with this doc since the migration
in-tree in pike, which are handled here:

- Updated options to use the current names.
- Any mention of the periodic_task_interval option is removed
  since this doc is really about the FilterScheduler, and the
  periodic task interval is only used by the CachingScheduler to
  cache and refresh hosts, something the FilterScheduler doesn't do.
  The note about service_down_time is already covered in the help
  text for the periodic_task_interval option.
- Removed a broken (and oddly placed) link to the block storage
  docs; it's unclear why the compute scheduler docs need to randomly
  link to the block storage docs for schedluing (maybe that was
  super legacy from the nova-volume days).
- Fixed a broken link to the 'evacuate instances' docs.

This change does not get into details for the individual filters
or weighers, only the overview and filter scheduler description.

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

For information on how to contribute to Nova, please see the contents of the CONTRIBUTING.rst.

Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file, and pass all unit tests.
