Title:
  rescue instance with libvirt and "boot from volume"

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Hello!

  I tried to use the rescue call with a "boot from volumes" instance, which didn't work,
  because the rescue function (nova/compute/manager.py) does not pass the block_device_info to the libvirt driver.

  I dug a little deeper and made some changes in nova/virt/libvirt/driver.py.
  i modified the resuce function to pass the block_device_info for the to_xml and _create_image function.
  Then i modified some more code to get the libvirt xml right.

  Please see my attached patch.

  Please note i'm a beginner in python and nova coding :)
