Add a Notifier.prepare() method

Nova sends notifications with a bunch of different publisher_ids, so we
instantiate quite a lot of Notifier objects. Loading the noification
drivers for each of these is a substantial amount of overhead.

One obvious answer would be to make publisher_id an argument to the
error(), info(), etc. methods, but I think it's nice to encapsulate the
publisher_id in a notifier instance.

Instead, add a prepare() method which mirrors the approach in RPCClient.
You use this method to create a specialized notifier instance with a new
publisher_id.

A Notifier object can be instantiated with a transport object and a

and notifications are sent via drivers chosen with the notification_driver
config option and on the topics consen with the notification_topics config
option.
Alternatively, a Notifier object can be instantiated with a specific
driver or topic:
driver or topic::

Notifier objects are relatively expensive to instantiate (mostly the cost
of loading notification drivers), so it is possible to specialize a given
