Stephen Finucane 564f5330c3 [config-ref]: update nova config options for stable/ocata
This significant rework occurs due to recent changes in the
openstack-doc-tools project.

There are some manual fixes to the following options, where invalid rST
was included. These have been fixed on nova master but still need to be
backported to stable/ocata. This will be done separately.

- block_device_allocate_retries_interval (DEFAULT)
- torrent_images (xenserver)
