Public bug reported:

We currently allow reboot/rebuild/rescue for an instance in the Error
state if the instance has successfully booted at least once.

We should allow "evacuate" as well, since it is essentially a "rebuild" on a different compute node.
    
This would be useful in a number of cases, in particular if an initial evacuation attempt fails (putting the instance into the Error state).
