    Snapshot: offload glance upload in a native thread

    Execute glance upload in a native thread as it may block the current
    coroutine until it completes.

    Despite the fact we use eventlet monkey_patching [1] to achieve cooperative
    yielding for network IO, file IO on busy file system may still get
    nova-compute hanging.

    Stick those IO in a native thread using eventlet tpool.execute() [2]
    avoid this issue.
