Title:
  Make host_manager use scatter-gather and ignore down cells

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Fix Released
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova) pike series:
  Confirmed
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova) queens series:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Currently the "_get_computes_for_cells" function in the host_manager
  of scheduler runs sequentially and this affects the performance in
  case of large deployments (running a lot of cells) :

  https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/stable/pike/nova/scheduler/host_manager.py#L601

  So it would be nice to use the scatter_gather_all_cells function to do
  this operation in parallel.

  Also apart from the performance scaling point of view, in case
  connection to a particular cell fails, it would be nice to have
  sentinels returned which is done by the scatter_gather_all_cells. This
  helps when a cell is down.
