    Avoid inventory DELETE API (no conflict detection)
    
    SchedulerReportClient._delete_inventory used the DELETE
    /resource_providers/{u}/inventories API, which does not provide a way to
    send the generation down (see bug 1746373), and is therefore subject to
    concurrency errors.
    
    This change set removes the _delete_inventory method and uses PUT
    /resource_providers/{u}/inventories with an empty 'inventories' dict
    instead, because that API *does* take the generation in the payload.
    
    Doing this makes moot part of bug 1746075 by removing one of the code
    paths that exploits undocumented knowledge of how placement uses the
    generation counter.

Title:
  Report client _delete_inventory violates generation consistency

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  SchedulerReportClient._delete_inventory uses the DELETE
  /resource_providers/{u}/inventories API, which does not provide a way
  to send the generation down (see related bug [1]), and is therefore
  subject to concurrency errors.

  Until/unless an alternative becomes available, we should be using PUT
  /resource_providers/{u}/inventories with an empty 'inventories' dict,
  because that API *does* take the generation in the payload.  (If we do
  this, we also make moot part of related bug [2].)
