Adds support for LVM ephemeral storage in Nova
DevStack currently lacks support for LVM ephemeral storage in Nova.
This support is important for testing of Nova's LVM backend. The
proposed change adds a default volume group, to be shared by Cinder
and Nova. It also adds a configuration option NOVA_BACKEND, which
must be LVM if it is set, that determines whether Nova should be
configured to use LVM ephemeral storage.
