Title:
  Instance remains in deleting state if libvirt down during deletion

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Scenario: While terminating an instance, if the libvirt process goes
  down just before the 'destroy' method gets called from
  virt.libvirt.connection module, instance remains in 'deleting' state.

  Expected Behavior: Compute must handle the exception and update the instance vm_state='error'
  Actual Result: The instance remains in the following state: vm_state='active', task_state='deleting', power_state=1.

  Compute manager must handle the libvirt exception and set the instance
  to error state in this scenario.
