    Fix error status code on update-volume API

    As the following part of API-WG guidline[1],

      If a request contains a reference to a nonexistent resource in the
      body (not URI), the code should be 400 Bad Request. Do not use 404
      NotFound because :rfc:`7231#section-6.5.4` (section 6.5.4) mentions
      the origin server did not find a current representation for the
      target resource for 404 and representation for the target resource
      means a URI

    Nova should return a BadRequest response(400) in this case, because
    new_volume_id is specified in a request body. old_volume_id is not
    necessary to be changed because the value is specified with URI.
    So it is valid to return NotFound response if that is not existent.
