Title:
  live_migrate task ignores extra_specs

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Fix Released
Status in OpenStack Security Advisories:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  The new live_migrate task in the conductor does not pass extra_specs
  from the flavor through to the filters - thus giving an incorrect
  result.

  This showed up when using the TrustedFilter which depends on
  extra_specs (set by nova.scheduler.utils.build_request_spec) - however
  nova.conductor.tasks.live_migrate.LiveMigrationTask._get_candidate_destination
  does not use this build_request_spec and builds it's own - which
  missed this extra_specs value.

  Marked as a security vulnerability as it means that the use of live
  migration will bypass filters intended to provide a secure environment
  such as TrustedFilter.
