Title:
  Too many errors can trigger compute failed_builds to get incremented

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  New
Status in OpenStack Security Advisory:
  New

Bug description:
  So let's analyze what can cause a compute managers failed_builds to
  get incremented and point out that some of them should not be causing
  failed_builds to get incremented (which then can have the 'nice'
  effect of auto-disabling a nova-compute service).

  So the return code of self._do_build_and_run_instance returns a result
  code; the catch of all exceptions also triggers the setting of a
  result code to failed; when this is failed it will cause the
  failed_build counter to get incremented.

  Some unrelated to nova-compute exceptions that from reading the code
  can trigger this to happen:

  - Unable to base64 decode injected files.
  - Failure of notify_about_instance_create to actually send (some inner exception perhaps?)
  - exception.NoMoreNetworks, exception.NoMoreFixedIps
  - exception.FlavorDiskTooSmall, exception.FlavorMemoryTooSmall,
    exception.ImageNotActive, exception.ImageUnacceptable,
    exception.InvalidDiskInfo, exception.InvalidDiskFormat,
    cursive_exception.SignatureVerificationError,
    exception.VolumeEncryptionNotSupported, exception.InvalidInput,
    exception.RequestedVRamTooHigh --- these bubble up as BuildAbortException
  - exception.InstanceNotFound, exception.UnexpectedDeletingTaskStateError
  - Anything that pops out of _build_resources
     - Failed to allocate network

  And many more?
