Handling Reshaped Provider Trees

Registered by Eric Fried

Virt drivers need to be able to change the structure of the provider trees they expose. When moving existing resources, existing allocations need to be moved along with the inventories. And this must be done in such a way as to avoid races where a second entity can create or remove allocations against the moving inventories.

I'm deferring this to Train because although the libvirt driver implemented reshapes for VGPU inventory and allocations, the xenapi driver did not and there is no FFU support. -- mriedem 20190311

Deferring this out of Train since it wasn't approved and we're about 2 weeks from feature freeze. -- mriedem 20190829
