Public bug reported:

Currently libvirt driver doesn't support resizing disk down.

During a resizing down all run well and the instance is updated to the new flavor with the new disk size.
but in real the disk is not resized and keep the original size.

We need to add the support of resizing down:
1. resizing the fs
2. resizing the image

For the step one we have to be sure we work with only one partition and
we don't erase data.

what to do for the support of ntfs?
