provide an API to list capabilities by datastore

[Amrith Kumar]

This request was raised by a user of Trove.

Trove has varying degrees of support for different capabilities for each datastore.

The requestor would like an API (or set of API's) to interrogate a Trove controller and obtain this information.

Why not a feature support matrix just like nova?

Matrix sounds cool. Right now we're focusing on supporting what datastores, datastore versions based on what distributed linux systems. Looks like a matrix can help with much more clear trove capabilities for each datastore, and it can also help find the capability gaps between different datastores.

It's related to the ptg discussion about datastore support. So please feel free to bring up a spec about it :)

Thanks for your great ideas and future works!
