Previous patches removed direct eventlet usage from nova-compute so
now we can run it with native threading as well. This patch documents
the possibility and switches both nova-compute processes to native
threading mode in the nova-next job.

Move the execution of build_and_run_instance and snapshot_instance to
one common long task executor. Originally snapshot ran
on the RPC pool, build_and_run_instance ran on the default pool.
Also each of these tasks had a separate concurrency limit enforced by a
semaphore.
After this patch each of these tasks use a common Executor. The size of
that executor and the way how we limit the concurrency differs in
eventlet and in native threading mode.
In eventlet mode we have one big Executor with "unlimit" size and
individual semaphores are used for each task type to enforce the
configured limits.
In threading mode we requests the admin to configure the 2 limits to the
same number, and we warn if not. We use that limit (or the max of the 2
limits) as the size of the long task Executor. As the limits are the
same we don't enforce individual limit any more. The executor size will
ensure the shared limit is kept. As the limit is shared a single
operation type can consume the whole limit.
Note that while live migration is a long-running task we cannot put it into
the same long_task_executor as build and snapshot as we need:
1. a very small limit of concurrent live migrations compared to
builds and snapshots
2. a way to cancel live migrations easily that are waiting due to the
limit

Ironic is adding support for VNC consoles tracked under the following
spec[1]. This change provides support for the Nova Ironic driver to
access the consoles created by this feature effort.
This supersedes an existing Nova spec[2] to add VNC console support to
the Ironic driver, so this change can be considered to implement this
spec also. This change can be merged independently of the Ironic work,
as the Ironic driver handles the VNC console not being available.
The pre-requesites for a graphical console being available for an Ironic
driver node is:
- Ironic is configured to enable graphical consoles
- The node ``console_interface`` is a graphical driver such as
``redfish-graphical`` or ``fake-graphical``
- ``nova-novncproxy`` can make network connections to the VNC servers
which run adjacent to ``ironic-conductor``
The associated depends on adds the novnc validation check to the
baremetal basic ops, which is run in job
ironic-tempest-ipa-wholedisk-bios-agent_ipmitool-tinyipa.
In the support matrix console.vnc support is set to partial for ironic
due to the current lack of vencrypt support on the ironic side.

This changes the thread pool usage of the ComputeManager to go through
the concurrency mode aware util functions.
The concurrent live migration pool had a seemingly unlimited option
when configured with value 0, but in reality GreenThreadPool has a
default worker size of 1000. In reality it is almost never right to
have more than one live migration running concurrently. Also with
native threading having 1000 worker is just too costly. So we
decided to deprecate the value 0 and changed the implementation of
unlimited to mean 5 threads in native threading mode. We kept the 1000
greenthread in eventlet mode for backward compatibility.
The _sync_power_states periodic task also spawn tasks for each instance
to be synced. As it uses a shared data structure across these tasks
and the caller a lock is needed to avoid race conditions.
Also the default pool size is 1000 for these tasks in our configuration.
That would use a lot of memory on a busy host in native threading mode.
So we changed the default value from 1000 to 5.

This is a follow up for the release notes added in the commit
35207ee8b5 that changed the default mode
for the scheduler and the API services. At that time we missed to note
the upgrade impact of such change. So this patch extends the reno with
an upgrade note.

This patch switches the default concurrency mode to native threading
for the services that gained native threading support in Flamingo:
nova-scheduler, nova-api, and nova-metadata.
The OS_NOVA_DISABLE_EVENTLET_PATCHING env variable still can be used to
explicitly switch the concurrency mode to eventlet by
OS_NOVA_DISABLE_EVENTLET_PATCHING=false
We also ensure that the cover, docs, py3xx and functional tox targets
are still running with eventlet while py312-threading kept running
with native threading.

This is technical dead end and not something we're going to be able to
support long-term in pbr. We need to push users away from this. Doing so
highlights quite a few place where our docs need some work, particularly
in light of the recent removal of the eventlet servers.

When using the weigher, we need to target the right cell context for the
existing instances in the host.
fill_metadata was also having an issue as we need to pass the dict value
from the updated dict by keying the instance uuid, not the whole dict of
updated instances.

It turns out that nova-api and nova-metadata only depend on spawning
threads via scatter-gather. The scatter-gather already supports both
eventlet and threading mode so we can switch these services.
Our WSGI services (nova-api, nova-metadata) are not relying on
oslo.service to fork worker processes, but expect the web server to
handle that (uwsgi, apache mod_wsgi). This means we don't need to handle
any forking issues as no nova code runs before the fork.

At the service startup nova need to initialize either the eventlet or
the threading backend of oslo.service. So this patch reuses the existing
logic behind OS_NOVA_DISABLE_EVENTLET_PATCHING.
When OS_NOVA_DISABLE_EVENTLET_PATCHING env variable is set to true the
service will select the threading backend otherwise the eventlet
backend.
Also to avoid later monkey patch calls to invalidated the selection if
the threading backend is selected then the monkey_patch code is
poisoned.
This patch also makes sure that oslo.messaging also initialized with the
matching executor backend.
As this is the last step to make nova-scheduler run in threading mode
this patch adds a release notes as well.

Keystone project manager role can be used for the project-level
management APIs. Nova introduced the manager role in policy
defaults.
To introduced the manager role, we need to make migrations
policies more granular. Adding the separate policies for host
related operation allow us to open the migration operations
to project manager role. Existing policy is checked if migration
without specifying host and new policy is checked if host is
specified. Same will be applied to list migrations, new policy
will control to return the host info.
Also, Adding doc and releasenotes.

Document and the limitation of the PCI in Placement feature that it
does not support [pci]alias configuration where the name of the alias is
repeated. E.g.
[pci]
alias = { "name": "vf1", "product_id":"10ca", "vendor_id":"8086", "device_type":"type-VF"}
alias = { "name": "vf1", "product_id":"f000", "vendor_id":"8086", "device_type":"type-VF"}
This would mean the alias vf1 can be fulfilled from devices with product
id 10ca OR f000. However this OR relationship cannot be encoded to a
single Placement allocation query as Placement does not support
requesting alternative resource classes for a request[2].
This limitation was encoded in the original PCI in Placement
implementation[1] but we missed to mention it in the doc.
This is now fixed.
