Title:
  virt xenapi driver does not throw InstancePowerOffFailure exception on
  a failure while destroying an instance

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Opinion

Bug description:
  _shutdown_instance in compute manager expects InstancePowerOffFailure exception and reraises it.
  But the xenapi driver does not raise it. On the other hand it just returns a boolean value( "False" ) on a failure.

  Its potential consequences are that terminate_instance goes ahead and
  marks the instance as deleted, leaving behind orphaned instances.
