René Ribaud 09239fc2ea Allow unshelve to a specific host (REST API part)
This adds support to the REST API, in a new microversion, for specifying
a destination host to unshelve server action when the server
is shelved offloaded.
This patch also supports the ability to unpin the availability_zone of an
instance that is bound to it.

Note that the functional test changes are due to those tests using the
"latest" microversion 2.91.

Shelve Server (shelve Action)
=============================
.. rest_method:: POST /servers/{server_id}/action
Shelves a server.
Specify the ``shelve`` action in the request body.
All associated data and resources are kept but anything still in memory is not retained. To restore a shelved instance, use the ``unshelve`` action. To remove a shelved instance, use the ``shelveOffload`` action.
Policy defaults enable only users with the administrative role or the owner of the server to perform this operation. Cloud providers can change these permissions through the ``policy.json`` file.
**Preconditions**
The server status must be ``ACTIVE``, ``SHUTOFF``, ``PAUSED``, or ``SUSPENDED``.
If the server is locked, you must have administrator privileges to shelve the server.
**Asynchronous Postconditions**
After you successfully shelve a server, its status changes to ``SHELVED`` and the image status is ``ACTIVE``. The server instance data appears on the compute node that the Compute service manages.
If you boot the server from volumes or set the ``shelved_offload_time`` option to 0, the Compute service automatically deletes the instance on compute nodes and changes the server status to ``SHELVED_OFFLOADED``.
**Troubleshooting**
If the server status does not change to ``SHELVED`` or ``SHELVED_OFFLOADED``, the shelve operation failed. Ensure that you meet the preconditions and run the request again. If the request fails again, investigate whether another operation is running that causes a race condition.
Normal response codes: 202
Error response codes: unauthorized(401), forbidden(403), itemNotFound(404), conflict(409)

Shelf-Offload (Remove) Server (shelveOffload Action)
====================================================
.. rest_method:: POST /servers/{server_id}/action
Shelf-offloads, or removes, a shelved server.
Specify the ``shelveOffload`` action in the request body.
Data and resource associations are deleted. If an instance is no longer needed, you can remove that instance from the hypervisor to minimize resource usage.
Policy defaults enable only users with the administrative role or the owner of the server to perform this operation. Cloud providers can change these permissions through the ``policy.json`` file.
**Preconditions**
The server status must be ``SHELVED``.
If the server is locked, you must have administrator privileges to shelve-offload the server.
**Asynchronous Postconditions**
After you successfully shelve-offload a server, its status changes to ``SHELVED_OFFLOADED``. The server instance data appears on the compute node.
**Troubleshooting**
If the server status does not change to ``SHELVED_OFFLOADED``, the shelve-offload operation failed. Ensure that you meet the preconditions and run the request again. If the request fails again, investigate whether another operation is running that causes a race condition.

If successful, this method does not return content in the response body.
Unshelve (Restore) Shelved Server (unshelve Action)
===================================================
.. rest_method:: POST /servers/{server_id}/action
Unshelves, or restores, a shelved server.
Specify the ``unshelve`` action in the request body.
Policy defaults enable only users with the administrative role or the owner of the server to perform this operation. Cloud providers can change these permissions through the ``policy.json`` file.
**Preconditions**
Unshelving a server without parameters requires its status to be ``SHELVED`` or ``SHELVED_OFFLOADED``.
Unshelving a server with availability_zone and/or host parameters requires its status to be only ``SHELVED_OFFLOADED`` otherwise HTTP 409 conflict response is returned.
If a server is locked, you must have administrator privileges to unshelve the server.
As of ``microversion 2.91``, you can unshelve to a specific compute node if you have PROJECT_ADMIN privileges.
This microversion also gives the ability to pin a server to an availability_zone and to unpin a server
from any availability_zone.
When a server is pinned to an availability_zone, the server move operations will keep the server in that
availability_zone. However, when the server is not pinned to any availability_zone, the move operations can
move the server to nodes in different availability_zones.
The behavior according to unshelve parameters will follow the below table.
+----------+---------------------------+----------+--------------------------------+
| Boot | AZ (1) | Host (1) | Result |
+==========+===========================+==========+================================+
| No AZ | No AZ or AZ=null | No | Free scheduling (2) |
+----------+---------------------------+----------+--------------------------------+
| No AZ | No AZ or AZ=null | Host1 | Schedule to Host1. |
| | | | Server remains unpinned. |
+----------+---------------------------+----------+--------------------------------+
| No AZ | AZ="AZ1" | No | Schedule to any host in "AZ1". |
| | | | Server is pined to "AZ1". |
+----------+---------------------------+----------+--------------------------------+
| No AZ | AZ="AZ1" | Host1 | Verify Host1 is in "AZ1", |
| | | | then schedule to Host1, |
| | | | otherwise reject the request. |
| | | | Server is pined to "AZ1". |
+----------+---------------------------+----------+--------------------------------+
| AZ1 | No AZ | No | Schedule to any host in "AZ1". |
| | | | Server remains pined to "AZ1". |
+----------+---------------------------+----------+--------------------------------+
| AZ1 | AZ=null | No | Free scheduling (2). |
| | | | Server is unpinned. |
+----------+---------------------------+----------+--------------------------------+
| AZ1 | No AZ | Host1 | Verify Host1 is in "AZ1", |
| | | | then schedule to Host1, |
| | | | otherwise reject the request. |
| | | | Server remains pined to "AZ1". |
+----------+---------------------------+----------+--------------------------------+
| AZ1 | AZ=null | Host1 | Schedule to Host1. |
| | | | Server is unpinned. |
+----------+---------------------------+----------+--------------------------------+
| AZ1 | AZ="AZ2" | No | Schedule to any host in "AZ2". |
| | | | Server is pined to "AZ2". |
+----------+---------------------------+----------+--------------------------------+
| AZ1 | AZ="AZ2" | Host1 | Verify Host1 is in "AZ2" then |
| | | | schedule to Host1, |
| | | | otherwise reject the request. |
| | | | Server is pined to "AZ2". |
+----------+---------------------------+----------+--------------------------------+
(1) Unshelve body parameters
(2) Schedule to any host available.
**Asynchronous Postconditions**
After you successfully unshelve a server, its status changes to ``ACTIVE``.
The server appears on the compute node.
The shelved image is deleted from the list of images returned by an API call.
**Troubleshooting**
If the server status does not change to ``ACTIVE``, the unshelve operation failed. Ensure that you meet the preconditions and run the request again. If the request fails again, investigate whether another operation is running that causes a race condition.
Normal response codes: 202
Error response codes: badRequest(400), unauthorized(401), forbidden(403), itemNotFound(404), conflict(409)
