Expose virtual device tags in REST API

Registered by Matt Riedemann

You can create a server with tagged block devices and virtual interfaces but there isn't a way to get the tags out of the REST API. This blueprint proposes that we add a microversion to expose the tags in the REST API when listing volume attachments and attached ports.

This was discussed at the Ocata summit:

https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/ocata-nova-summit-api

It has come up a few times since, notably in removing the device_name parameter from the volume attach API:

And the detach/attach root volume spec: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/600628/
