Fix/Remove Quantum rootwrap
nova-rootwrap has significantly evolved over the Folsom cycle. Quantum forked it around Essex time. Since then it looks very abandoned (lots of missing filters), while Quantum grew some adherence to using root_helper=sudo.
Since it's not really supported, quantum-rootwrap should be removed before we make an official release of Quantum (rather than maintaining a half-working version that would not be similar to nova-rootwrap and cinder-rootwrap config-wise)
Alternatively, it should be fixed.

Remove non-functioning quantum-rootwrap
[8/15/12] I (jrd) have been testing a fix, and expect to upload it as a WIP patch in the next few hours. I'm hoping we can slide it in for the Folsom release, rather then ripping the facility out.
