Title:
  "/nova/image/glance.py"  could not parse ipv6 address correctly

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Version of Nova: Grizzly.

  I tried to configure controller node and compute node work together
  using pure IPv6.

   Edit  nova.conf file and quantum.conf file,
   Set the host-address( for example: qpid_hostname, glance_api_servers ...) to [2001:db8::22](the ip-address of the controller node)

   When to boot an instance then the compute node to get images, there was an ERROR in
       file: nova/image/glance.py ,
       function: get_api_servers():
                             o = urlparse.urlparse(api_server)
                             port = o.port or 80
                             host = o.netloc.split(":", 1)[0]

       It reported an ERROR if the argument "api_server" is a ipv6
  address( for example: [2001:db8::22])

  In /nova/openstack/common/network_utils.py, there is a function parse_host_port() which could pares the ipv6 address correctly.
  So I tried to use this function instead of the current bug code.
  But after that the variable "host" is "2001:db8::22" without '[]' that caused other problems, for example in
     file: /glanceclient/common/http/py
     Class HTTPClient()
         _init_(self, endpoint, **kwargs)

     the endpoint is "http://2001:db8::22:9292"; without '[]'

  Anyway, The current code could not parse ipv6 address correctly. There
  were also similar problems in other places of the code.
