    Filter out deleted images from storage usage

    All database API's currently include deleted images in the calc of
    storage usage. This is not an issue when deleted images don't have
    locations. However, there are cases where a deleted image has deleted
    locations as well and that causes the current algorithm to count those
    locations as if they were allocating space.

    Besides this bug, it makes sense to not load deleted / killed /
    pending_delete images from the database if we're actually not
    considering them as valid images.

    The patch also filters out deleted locations.

    NOTE: In the case of locations, it was not possible to add a test for
    the deleted locations because it requires some changes that are not
    worth in this patch. In order to mark a location as deleted, it's
    necessary to go through the API and use a PATCH operation. Since this is
    a database test, it doesn't make much sense to add API calls to it.
    Calling the image_destroy function with an empty location list will
    remove all the locations which won't help testing that specific case.

    I'll work on a better solution for that in a follow-up patch.
