New instance reservation feature

Registered by Hiroaki Kobayashi

The instance reservation feature is not available in this release because it depends on
Nova API extensions - v2 of which was deprecated in Liberty and the API extension itself
is completely removed in Ocata[2]. We have to implement in another way to get instance
reservation feature back.

How about completing (changing status as implemented) this blueprint and extract remaining 2 work items 'update_reservation(), client support) as a new blueprint or bug entry?

(masahito)
The two items related to the BP move to bug reports.
