Peter Penchev f2427b4618 Add the clone_across_pools driver capability
Let drivers declare that they can clone a volume into a different
pool and relax the checks when creating a volume from an image
(both with and without the image cache).

features:
- Add the clone_across_pools driver capability
Drivers can now declare that they can clone a volume into a
different pool. Essentially, if this capability is declared, Cinder
will skip the check that the pool of the destination volume is the
same as the pool of the source volume.
Some drivers do not have such a restriction and it may be possible
to complete the "create volume from image" operation very
efficiently instead of falling back to the "attach and dd" option.
This affects creating a volume from an image with and without the
image cache. For more details please check `bp clone_across_pools
