inori a50b897459 Fujitsu Driver: Add parameter fujitsu_use_cli_copy
Add a parameter fujitsu_use_cli_copy.

If ``fujitsu_use_cli_copy`` is set to ``False``, create a Snapshot
using the conventional SMI-S method.

If ``fujitsu_use_cli_copy`` is set to ``True``, create a Snapshot using
the CLI method "start copy-snap-opc" with specified "-source-lba" and
"-destination-lba". "Copy Scope" will be set to "Extent", allowing
volume extension of the source volume.

Fujitsu Eternus DX driver: Added cli operations when creating snapshot
Fujitsu Eternus DX driver used to create snapshot using SMI-S, resulting
in the inability to extend the source volume.
To make the volume extendable after creating a snapshot, an additional
parameter ``fujitsu_use_cli_copy`` is introduced with a default value of
``False``.
* If ``fujitsu_use_cli_copy`` is set to ``False``, create a snapshot using
the conventional SMI-S method.
* If ``fujitsu_use_cli_copy`` is set to ``True``, create a snapshot using
the CLI method, allowing volume extension of the source volume.
Note that ``fujitsu_use_cli_copy`` cannot be set to True when the type of
target pool is RAID Group.
See the `Fujitsu ETERNUS DX driver documentation
<https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/latest/configuration/block-storage/drivers/fujitsu-eternus-dx-driver.html>`_
for details.
