Title:
  Proper error message to user in case 4 byte unicode characters are
  used for entity names.

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  mysql database does not support 4 byte unicode due to its utf8
  character set.

  If any operation is executed with 4byte unicode name, it reports 500 error without any proper error message to user.
  This will be confusing for user as no information is present about why this issue occurred.

  Please refer below for details:
