Bug Description
Using nova Essex I can no longer delete instances in 'BUILD' state.
The ability to delete instances in 'BUILD' state is very useful from an end user prospective. We used to support it (in Diablo) and we should in Essex as well.

Pick your poison:
1) Delete instances that are building causing interesting problems for nova-compute while the instance it's trying to build is torn down while it's using it.
2) Can't delete if instance gets stuck in BUILD.
The latter is a bug elsewhere in the code. Instances should never get stuck in BUILD, they should either go to ACTIVE or ERROR.
I'd much rather fix the underlying problem than paper over it.
