Bug Description

https://review.openstack.org/347352
Dear bug triager. This bug was created since a commit was marked with DOCIMPACT.
Your project "openstack/glance" is set up so that we directly report the documentation bugs against it. If this needs changing, the docimpact-group option needs to be added for the project. You can ask the OpenStack infra team (#openstack-infra on freenode) for help if you need to.

    Add 'vhdx' disk format.

    This patch adds the Hyper-V 'vhdx' disk format to the Glance
    configuration. This allows users to upload 'vhdx' images by default.

    'vhdx' disks can have much larger storage capacity than the older 'vhd'
    format [1]. (Plus, anything with 'x' in the name is awesome.)

    DocImpact: Docs will need to be updated to indicate that the 'vhdx'
    disk_format is now one of the default disk formats supported by Glance.

    UpgradeImpact: Adds 'vhdx' to the default list of disk_formats. Operators
    will no longer need to configure specifically to use 'vhdx' disks.

Dev docs were updated as part of the merged patch. This bug applies to the api-ref.

Do not merge until we figure out how to tag the Mitaka api-ref (this is a Newton change).

    Update api-ref to add newly supported 'vhdx' disk format option.

    Images API reference is updated to reflect that the 'vhdx'
    disk_format is now one of the default formats supported by Glance.
    This change also introduces substitution of image parameter
    description from a single source file in order to avoid copy and
    paste errors. Only the disk_format parameter is affected in this,
    other parameters may be consolidated in subsequent patch(es).
