Add the ability for the nova boot command to create a cinder volume

Registered by John Griffith

Rather than go to Cinder and 'create volume --source-volid xxxx....' then go to nova and do "nova boot --block-device-mapping xxxxx...'

Why not just do 'nova boot xxxx --create-vol <type> <size>...' and let nova call to cinderclient to build the volume on demand.
