Xenial is nearing ESM and this isn't critical enough to backport at this
time.

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  OpenStack Train, Ceph Nautilus, ceph-rbd-mirror is deployed in dual-way.
  Cinder has Ceph as backend for volumes.

  Creating a volume from qcow2 image.
  Current flow is the following:
  1. Cinder creates empty volume in Ceph
  2. Cinder downloads the image
  3. Image is converted to raw
  4. Volume is deleted https://github.com/openstack/cinder/blob/master/cinder/volume/drivers/rbd.py#L1611
  5. Cinder performs "rbd import" using unpacked raw image as source.

  Apparently rbd-mirror daemon creates a snapshot upon the image creation in Ceph (seems for mirroring purposes) which for empty image lasts for about a second.
  It happens that step4 may be performed (very often) during the period of time when the snapshot exists, and it fails with "Cannot delete the volume with snapshots" error.
  The only way to fix this behaviour - disable mirroring of the backend pool which is not desired.

  [Test Case]
  This is a light-weight test to ensure the code is working as expected, using the unit test from the patch:

  lxc launch ubuntu-daily:hirsute h1
  lxc exec h1 /bin/bash
  root@h1:~# sudo apt install python3-cinder
  root@h1:~# cd /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/
  root@h1:~# python3 -m unittest cinder.tests.unit.volume.drivers.test_rbd.RBDTestCase.test_copy_image_busy_volume
  /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/oslo_db/sqlalchemy/enginefacade.py:359: OsloDBDeprecationWarning: EngineFacade is deprecated; please use oslo_db.sqlalchemy.enginefacade
    self._legacy_facade = LegacyEngineFacade(None, _factory=self)
  .
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------
  Ran 1 test in 0.701s

  OK

  The test will fail if the fixed code is not installed.

  [Regression Potential]
  This is a very minimal change that simply adds a retry when exception.VolumeIsBusy is encountered. The frequency and number of retries are configurable via rados_connection_interval and rados_connection_retries. Worst case scenario, if these are exceeded, the original error will be encountered.

  This is accompanied by a unit test fix for: https://pad.lv/1913607
