The "vm workload consolidation" strategy is summing up instance usage in order to estimate host usage. The problem is that some infrastructure services (e.g. OVS or Ceph clients) may also use a significant amount of resources, which would be ignored. This can impact Watcher's ability to detect overloaded nodes and correctly rebalance the workload. This commit will use the host metrics, if available. The proposed implementation uses the maximum value between the host metric and the sum of the instance metrics. Note that we're holding a dict of host metric deltas in order to account for planned migrations. Change-Id: I82f474ee613f6c9a7c0a9d24a05cba41d2f68edb
