Public bug reported:

When Nova is patched to use os-brick, there will be a couple changes
required to support the HGST Solutions connector type in it.

Three very minor changes need to be made to make this happen:

1) Because os-brick is a library and not an application, the rootwrap
for Nova will need to include the required CLI commands to attach/detach
volumes as it can't live in os-brick's repository

2) libvirt_volume_types needs to include the HGST=>
LibvirtHGSTVolumeDriver mapping, because os-brick doesn't support
discovery of supported types

3) A small shim LibvirtHGSTVolumeDriver calling the os-brick library
needs to be added, again because there is no generic way presently for
os-brick to map to specific volume types in libvirtvolumetype.
