Title:
  AZ reported wrongly until instance is scheduled

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The availability zone attribute of an instance returned from
  server/details is based on finding the host the instance is running on
  and then finding which az that host is in.

  When an instance is still in the Building state this info isn't
  available - and as a result the instance will show up in the default
  az, which is confusing to the user (they think its being started in
  the wrong az)

  Two possible solutions:
  - Report the az based on the value in the instance table (rather than trying to derive it from the host)

  or

  - Don't include az info in the building state (I think we do this now
  for networks ?)

  
  I prefer the first option, as I think its less confusing to users.
