Title:
  [Launch Instance Fix] Warn user if boot volume AZ differs from
  instance AZ

Status in OpenStack Dashboard (Horizon):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  In the new Launch Instance wizard, a user is able to select a bootable
  volume as a boot source. However we don't do any checks that prevent a
  user from selecting a bootable volume that resides in a different
  availability zone from the availability zone they have selected for
  the instance. For some deployments, this may be problematic. We do
  have help text in the help panel that says the following:

  "If you select an availability zone and plan to use the boot from
  volume option, make sure that the availability zone you select for the
  instance is the same availability zone where your bootable volume
  resides."

  However the UX could be improved to warn the user more directly. At
  the very least we should show the Availability Zone as a column header
  for volumes in the transfer table. Right now that information is not
  even visible.

  If possible we should also add a warning icon and tooltip next to the
  volume's availabity zone name within the transfer table, and the
  tooltip would show the help text when hovering over the warning icon.
