    Clean BDM when snapshoting volume-backed instances

    When snapshoting a volume-backed instance, its block device mapping is
    copied entirely into the image properties of the resulting snapshot.

    This may lead to some errors when booting from that snapshot because the
    fields 'id', 'insance_uuid' and 'connection_info' must be generated for
    each instance instead of reusing the ones from the original instance.
    For example, sharing the connection_info will cause the new instance to
    try to connect to the original volume instead of creating a new one.

    This patch cleans all the database-specific plus the connection_info
    fields from the block device mapping when creating the snapshot.
