    unquiesce instance on volume snapshot failure

    This patch adds an exception catch to "snapshot_volume_backed()" of
    compute/api.py that catches (at the moment) _all_ exceptions from the
    underlying cinderclient. Previously, if the instance is quiesced ( frozen
    filesystem ) then the exception will break execution of the function,
    skipping the needed unquiesce, and leave the instance in a frozen state.

    Now, the exception catch will unquiesce the instance if it was prior to
    the failure.

    Got a unit test in place with the help of Matt Riedemann.
