Bug Description

Description
============

When resize to local host enabled and do a cold migration sometimes fails with

1. migrating to same host failed
2. and then a list index out of bound error

Steps to reproduce
===================

deploy two compute nodes and make workload imbalance, for example compute01 has more allocations
than compute02. Then migrate server on compute02.

Expected result
================

cold migration succeeded

actual result
==============

sometimes failed

log
======

    Add reproducer for bug #1881455

    The 'nova.compute.manager._reschedule_resize_or_reraise' function can
    end up calling 'from_exc_and_traceback' class method of the
    'ExecutionPayload' versioned notification object via the following call
    stack:

      nova.compute.manager._reschedule_resize_or_reraise
        nova.compute.utils.notify_about_instance_action
          nova.compute._get_fault_and_priority_from_exc_and_tb
            nova.notification.objects.exception.ExceptionPayload.from_exc_and_traceback

    The 'from_exc_and_traceback' class method uses 'inspect.trace()' to get
    more information about the provided execution in order to report
    information such as module and function name of the function raising the
    exception in the notification. 'inspect.trace()' must be called inside
    the context of an exception handler otherwise it returns an empty list.
    However, we are using '_reschedule_resize_or_reraise' to re-raise a
    previously raised and captured exception, which means we're not
    executing from such a context. This results in the following warning:

      IndexError: list index out of range

    A future change will resolve this but for now, prove the issue.

    Use 'Exception.__traceback__' for versioned notifications

    The 'inspect.trace()' function is expected to be called within the
    context of an exception handler. The 'from_exc_and_traceback' class
    method of the 'nova.notification.objects.exception.ExceptionPayload'
    class uses this to get information about a provided exception, however,
    there are cases where this is called from outside of an exception
    handler. In these cases, we see an 'IndexError' since we can't get the
    last frame of a non-existent stacktrace. The solution to this is to
    fallback to using the traceback embedded in the exception. This is a bit
    lossy when decorators are involved but for all other cases this will
    give us the same information. This also allows us to avoid passing a
    traceback argument to the function since we have it to hand already.
