grizzly: nova multi_instance_display_name_template

[Tom Fifield]

If https://review.openstack.org/#/c/21386/ is merged, a new configuration option/feature is added to nova - the ability to specifying a naming template for use when starting multiple instances in one request.

   89 cfg.StrOpt('multi_instance_display_name_template',
   90 default='%(name)s-%(uuid)s',
   91 help='When creating multiple instances with a single request '
   92 'using the os-multiple-create API extension, this '
   93 'template will be used to build the display name for '
   94 'each instance. The benefit is that the instances '
   95 'end up with different hostnames. To restore legacy '
   96 'behavior of every instance having the same name, set '
   97 'this option to "%(name)s". Valid keys for the '
   98 'template are: name, uuid, count.'),
 89 ] 99 ]

    This patch introduces a new configuration option,
    multi_instance_display_name_template, which makes
    it so that all instances are given a unique
    display_name and hostname when requesting that
    multiple instances get created at the same time.
