Improvements on the Hyper-V testing serialization

Registered by Alessandro Pilotti

The current implementation of the Hyper-V tests, uses serialized stubs in pickled and gzipped format, as documented here: https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/tests/hyperv/README.rst

The serialized binary format generates management issues in Git and concerns related to the opacity of the blobs and needs to be changed to Json, as dicussed in the following Nova meeting: http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/meetings/nova/2012/nova.2012-11-29-21.01.html
