Bug Description

With this change in pike: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/446053/ - when resizing a server the instance.availability_zone is changed to whatever zone the destination host is in.

For a server that is created with an explicit AZ, the resize is restricted to the same AZ via the AvailabilityZoneFilter. For a server that is not created with an explicit AZ and https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/configuration/config.html#DEFAULT.default_schedule_zone is None (the default), the server is free to "move" between zones.

The bug is that when a server is resized and moves from zone 1 to zone 2, if the resize is reverted, nothing updates the instance.availability_zone value back to the original zone even though the server is on the original source host in the initial zone.

Note that the API hides this a bit when showing the instance AZ:

https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/482f4fed654f384e8fb277c504a14a6407ba2e7b/nova/availability_zones.py#L179-L194

If the instance.availability_zone value in the database does not match the cached zone that the instance.host is in, the API will return the zone for the host rather than the instance.availability_zone value. But the instance.availability_zone value in the database is still incorrect.

Note that even though the API shows the correct AZ when showing the server details in isolation, the 'availability_zone' query parameter when listing servers will be wrong.

    Add functional recreate test for bug 1819963

    When resizing a server that was not created in an explicit
    zone, the scheduler can pick a host in another zone and
    conductor will update the instance.availability_zone value
    for the new dest host zone.

    The problem is when reverting the resize, the server goes
    back to the original source host/zone but the
    instance.availability_zone value in the database is not
    updated which can lead to incorrect results when listing
    servers and filtering by zone.

    This adds a functional recreate test for the bug.

    table in the API DB) before casting to nova-compute to
    complete the revert. As noted in the comment within, this
    is not fail-safe in case the revert fails before the
    instance.host is updated in finish_revert_resize, but we
    don't have a lot of great backportable options here that
    don't involve "up-calls" from the compute to the API DB.
