Bug Description

If libvirt fails to deploy instance - for example due to problematic vif type being passed. The conductor will fail to clean up resources. This fails with the exception below. This is due to the fact that the cell mapping was not invoked.

Newton is basically end of life at this point (we were actually supposed to do that in October I think).

While this bug was introduced in Newton, I don't think we need to hold newton-eol up for this bug, because this will only fail if your conductor service is not configured for the API database and I assume that was pretty common config until at least Ocata when we started requiring cells v2 and more so in Pike when we started pushing for split MQ for cells v2 deployments (where you have a top-level conductor service that can talk to the API DB and a conductor service per cell with it's own MQ and DB, and was isolated from the top-level MQ and API DB).

So in the interest of newton-eol, I'm not going to hold that up for this.

    Don't try to delete build request during a reschedule

    If populate_retry failed because of MaxRetriesExceeded,
    don't try to delete build requests because they should
    already be gone from the initial create attempt, plus
    we should assume the cell conductor can't reach the API
    database anyway.

    Similar for hitting NoValidHost during a reschedule. We
    can tell if we're doing a reschedule by the num_attempts
    value in filter_properties, populated via populate_retry,
    which will be >1 during a reschedule.
