    Ensure resource classes correctly
    
    Previously, SchedulerReportClient.set_inventory_for_provider used this
    logic to pre-create custom resource classes found in the input
    inventory.
    
            list(map(self._ensure_resource_class,
                     (rc_name for rc_name in inv_data
                      if rc_name not in fields.ResourceClass.STANDARD)))
    
    ...where _ensure_resource_class would always attempt to create the
    resource class it was given, and raise an exception if that failed for
    any reason.  Note in particular that attempting to create an
    already-extant "standard" resource class will fail just the same as
    attempting to create any nonexistent resource class that doesn't conform
    to the schema (i.e. beginning with "CUSTOM_").
    
    The problem is that this relies on the local system's notion of the set
    of standard resource classes. If the placement service is running newer
    code, standard resource classes may have been added that the compute
    service doesn't know about yet.
    
    This change set solves the problem by only attempting to create resource
    classes with the 'CUSTOM_' prefix.
    
    self._ensure_resource_class (which worked on a single resource class) is
    replaced with self._ensure_resource_classes (plural) which accepts a
    list of *all* the desired resource classes (including the standard
    ones), filters down to the CUSTOM_* ones, and attempts to create the
    remainder.
    
    Note that if placement ever decides to start allowing creation of
    resource classes with prefixes other than CUSTOM_, it will have to do so
    under a new microversion, so we can't future-proof this by e.g.
    prefetching all the known resource classes from placement and attempting
    to create any not found in that list.
    
    In the process of doing this rework, obsolete code paths relying on
    pre-1.7 placement microversions are removed.

Title:
  Report client can try to ensure a standard resource class

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  SchedulerReportClient.set_inventory_for_provider uses this logic [1]
  to pre-create custom resource classes found in the input inventory.

          list(map(self._ensure_resource_class,
                   (rc_name for rc_name in inv_data
                    if rc_name not in fields.ResourceClass.STANDARD)))

  The problem is that this relies on the local system's notion of the
  set of standard resource classes.  If the placement service is running
  newer code, standard resource classes may have been added that the
  compute service doesn't know about yet.  If a consumer attempts to use
  such a resource class, the above block will attempt to
  _ensure_resource_class on it, which attempts to create it in
  placement, which results in a 400 (because the schema requires it to
  begin with CUSTOM_), which results in InvalidResourceClass exception,
  and the consumer can't use that resource class.

  We should never be relying on placement code directly on the compute
  node.  (This includes introspecting os-traits.)  We should always be
  asking the placement service.
