Provide support for creating dynamic quota resources
During creation or deletion of an instance, quota needs to be calculated and committed accordingly.
Currently, quota calculations are based on 14 static resources hardcoded in the nova/quota.py.
These static resources are cores, ram, disk, instances and so on.
There is no support provided for an openstack admin to create dynamic quota resources and assign quota for a specific project, based on the newly created dynamic resource.
This is in relation to usecases, where an openstack admin wants to allow a specific project to create only 5 instances in a particular availability zone, particular flavor type, hardware type (SSD) or any random category that an admin chooses.
Quota calculation during instance creation and deletion should be based on all quota resources - static and dynamic.
How an admin chooses to make the selection of hardware is out of scope of this spec.
