John Griffith 106c14a84b Replication v2.1 (Cheesecake) 
This focuses the replication work on a specific use case,
and eliminates some of the ambiguity in earlier versions.

Additionally this implementation addresses needs for
devices that do replication based on the whole backend-device
or on Pools.

Use case:
  DR scenario, where a storage device is rendered inoperable.
  This implementation allows the preservation of user data
  for those volumes that are of type replication-enabled.

  The goal is NOT to make failures completely transparent
  but instead to preserve data access while an Admin tries
  to rebuild/recover his/her cloud.

It's very important to note that we're no longer interested in
dealing with replication in Cinder at a Volume level.  The concept
of have "some" volumes failover, and "others" left behind, proved
to not only be overly complex and difficult to implement, but we
never identified a concrete use-case where one would use failover
in a scenario where some volumes would stay and be accessible on
a primary but other may be moved and accessed via a secondary.

In this model, it's host/backend based.  So when you failover,
you're failing over an entire backend.  We heavily leverage
existing resources, specifically services, and capabilities.

Implements: blueprint replication-update
