Python style attribute naming - eg imageRef -> image_ref
Can't rely on device parameter with attach_volume with all hypervisors
Demotion of extensions from core
Promotion of extensions to core
XML Consistency with JSON
  Remove serializer/deserializer where possible
  "None" removal in XML output (where JSON parameters are null)
All non core extensions should have attribute prefixes where they extend existing ones
Nova unittest suite celanup for V3 api
  common server create controller class
  flags we don't need in the v3 api
  general cleanup of test_servers.py
extended attributes for server create (consistency between create/update/rebuild/resize)
