[Bug 1287881] [NEW] Refactor code around Console support

 

Public bug reported:

Initially Horizon only supported VNC. As support for new console types
was added, the code was expanded for each console without necessarily
looking at the whole, and now the code could use a bit of freshening up.
This is particularly obvious in tabs.py.

>From a comment on https://review.openstack.org/#/c/44257/ :

"We should have a common Console class that's aware of the different
types, and a common means of detecting which console type to use for the
instance rather than the chain of try/except statements."
