Make NFS Support Generic

Registered by Abel Lopez

Initially, I added NFS support as defined by NetApp's driver. This blueprint aims to make NFS support more generic, allowing users of our cookbooks to use the base NFS driver. Also updates the existing NetApp settings to allow better protocol selection support.

This will require changing some of the attributes, e.g. default['openstack']['block-storage']['netapp']['export'] should be default['openstack']['block-storage']['nfs']['export'].
The driver match in volume.rb should not assume NetApp, rather match for /nfs/.
Add an attribute for protocol support for new NetApp driver, e.g. default['openstack']['block-storage']['netapp']['protocol'] = (iscsi || nfs)
change legacy netapp driver name to new Havana+ name "cinder.volume.drivers.netapp.common.NetAppDriver"

These changes will allow a user to use whatever NFS backend, and at the same time cleanup the NetApp sections.
