Add compute-side cached snapshot for nova
Nova supports to boot virtual machines (VMs) atop the Cinder volumes. However,
in the current implementation (version Icehouse), booting up a large number of
homogeneous VMs is time-consuming. To overcome this drawback, we propose a
lightweight patch called VMT-snapshot for Nova for fast booting homogeneous VMs.
VMT-snapshot accelerates the booting process of a large number of VMs through
on-demand data transfer.
