Title:
  Instance Lock should protect Snapshot

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  The use of instance lock should be to prevent unwanted modification of
  the underlying VM. In the case of Trove, we are using it to help lock
  down instances to ensure integrity and protect secrets which are
  needed by the resident Trove Agent.  Even though we lock a machine,
  the end-user can still take a snapshot of the instance to create an
  image, then restore the image in an unrestricted manner.  Once they
  have access to this restored image, it can up the Trove Control Plane
  for compromise.  Simply adding a check_instance_lock around
  live_instance_snapshot and snapshot would be sufficient.
