Title:
  AZ should be validated durign instance create at the api layer

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Currently the compute API layer does not do any validation of the
  availability zone, so a request like:

  nova boot --availability_zone foobar

  will be accepted, sent to the scheduler, and the instance will go to
  error.

  There is already code in compute/api.py  which processes  the
  availability_zone  value

  def _handle_availability_zone(availability_zone)
  ...

  
  So it seems like there should be some basic validation added to check that the zone exists and is available
