    Do not persist RequestSpec.ignore_hosts

    Change Ic3968721d257a167f3f946e5387cd227a7eeec6c in Newton
    started setting the RequestSpec.ignore_hosts field to the
    source instance.host during resize/cold migrate if
    allow_resize_to_same_host=False in config, which it is by
    default.

    Change I8abdf58a6537dd5e15a012ea37a7b48abd726579 also in
    Newton persists changes to the RequestSpec in conductor
    in order to save the RequestSpec.flavor for the new flavor.
    This inadvertently persists the ignore_hosts field as well.

    Later if you try to evacuate or unshelve the server it will ignore
    the original source host because of the persisted ignore_hosts
    value. This is obviously a problem in a small deployment with only
    a few compute nodes (like an edge deployment). As a result, an
    evacuation can fail if the only available host is the one being
    ignored.

    This change does two things:

    1. In order to deal with existing corrupted RequestSpecs in the DB,
       this change simply makes conductor overwrite RequestSpec.ignore_hosts
       rather than append during evacuate before calling the scheduler so
       the current instance host (which is down) is filtered out.

       This evacuate code dealing with ignore_hosts goes back to Mitaka:

         I7fe694175bb47f53d281bd62ac200f1c8416682b

       The test_rebuild_instance_with_request_spec unit test is updated
       and renamed to actually be doing an evacuate which is what it was
       intended for, i.e. the host would not change during rebuild.

    2. This change makes the RequestSpec no longer persist the ignore_hosts
       field like several other per-operation fields in the RequestSpec.
       The only operations that use ignore_hosts are resize (if
       allow_resize_to_same_host=False), evacuate and live migration, and
       the field gets reset in each case to ignore the source instance.host.

    The related functional recreate test is also updated to show the
    bug is fixed. Note that as part of that, the confirm_migration method
    in the fake virt driver needed to be implemented otherwise trying to
    evacuate back to the source host fails with an InstanceExists error since
    the confirmResize operation did not remove the guest from the source host.
