    Fix default_availability_zone docs
    
    The default_availability_zone description incorrectly mentioned about
    the VM that is being booted.
    
    To save confusion in the future between default_availability_zone and
    default_schedule_zone, I have moved them into the same file.
    
    default_schedule_zone didn't previous define what None meant, that has
    also been corrected in this change.

  ----

  The descriptions of default_availability_zone and
  default_schedule_zone are confusing, they seem to serve the same
  purpose and it is not clear how they differ.

  Looking at the code a bit, the text for default_schedule_zone is even
  wrong, it does not affect the scheduler (at least not directly), but
  is being used in the "create server" call in the API in case that the
  original request did not specify an availability_zone.

  The default_availability_zone in contrast seems to be used to evaluate
  what the az for a compute host will be if it is not being set by other
  means.

  It would be nice if someone from Nova team could confirm this before
  we start updating the docs.
