XenAPI: Monitor the GC when coalescing

[OpenStack Infra]

https://review.openstack.org/60253

Dear documentation bug triager. This bug was created here because we did not know how to map the project name "openstack/nova" to a launchpad project name. This indicates that the notify_impact config needs tweaks. You can ask the OpenStack infra team (#openstack-infra on freenode) for help if you need to.

    XenAPI: Monitor the GC when coalescing

    Add a new host plugin to monitor whether the garbage collector is running.
    This is then used by the wait_for_vhd_coalesce function to know whether
    waiting any more is likely to produce the expected results.

    Increased the number of times we loop waiting for coalesce as the loop
    now has knowledge that something is still happening.

    DocImpact
    Change to parameter default.
