This provides microversion 1.13 of the placement API, giving the
ability to POST to /allocations to set (or clear) allocations for
more than one consumer uuid.
It builds on the recent work to support a dict-based JSON format
when doing a PUT to /allocations/{consumer_uuid}.
Being able to set allocations for multiple consumers in one request
helps to address race conditions when cleaning up allocations during
move operations in nova.
Clearing allocations is done by setting the 'allocations' key for a
specific consumer to an empty dict.
Updates to placement-api-ref, rest version history and a reno are
included.

OpenStack Nova provides a cloud computing fabric controller, supporting a wide
variety of compute technologies, including: libvirt (KVM, Xen, LXC and more),
Hyper-V, VMware, XenServer, OpenStack Ironic and PowerVM.
Use the following resources to learn more.
API
---
To learn how to use Nova's API, consult the documentation available online at:
- `Compute API Guide <https://developer.openstack.org/api-guide/compute/>`__
- `Compute API Reference <https://developer.openstack.org/api-ref/compute/>`__
For more information on OpenStack APIs, SDKs and CLIs in general, refer to:
- `OpenStack for App Developers <https://www.openstack.org/appdev/>`__
- `Development resources for OpenStack clouds
<https://developer.openstack.org/>`__
Operators
---------
To learn how to deploy and configure OpenStack Nova, consult the documentation
available online at:
- `OpenStack Nova <https://docs.openstack.org/nova/>`__
In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to
the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party
operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for
reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker,
available at:
- `Bug Tracker <https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova>`__
Developers
----------
For information on how to contribute to Nova, please see the contents of the
CONTRIBUTING.rst.
Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst
file, and pass all unit tests.
Further developer focused documentation is available at:
- `Official Nova Documentation <https://docs.openstack.org/nova/>`__
- `Official Client Documentation
<https://docs.openstack.org/python-novaclient/>`__
Other Information
-----------------
During each `Summit`_ and `Project Team Gathering`_, we agree on what the whole
community wants to focus on for the upcoming release. The plans for nova can
