    Delete allocations from API if nova-compute is down

    When performing a "local delete" of an instance, we
    need to delete the allocations that the instance has
    against any resource providers in Placement.

    It should be noted that without this change, restarting
    the nova-compute service will delete the allocations
    for its compute node (assuming the compute node UUID
    is the same as before the instance was deleted). That
    is shown in the existing functional test modified here.

    The more important reason for this change is that in
    order to fix bug 1756179, we need to make sure the
    resource provider allocations for a given compute node
    are gone by the time the compute service is deleted.

    This adds a new functional test and a release note for
    the new behavior and need to configure nova-api for
    talking to placement, which is idempotent if
    not configured thanks to the @safe_connect decorator
    used in SchedulerReportClient.
