Fix type error on call to mount device
The call in nova.virt.disk.mount.api.Mount.mnt_dev() to
nova.privsep.fs.mount() should include the `options` argument to
fulfill with the method signature.
The test test_do_mount_need_to_specify_fs_type has been modified to
check that the caller use the correct signature.

Title:
Error mounting device on create instance (LXC)
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
Fix Released
Bug description:
Description
===========
After installing Openstack in Ubuntu 18.04 and using LXC as
virtualization engine, the creation of an instance fails with a log in
`nova-compute.log` reporting that:
```Instance failed to spawn: TypeError: mount() takes exactly 4
arguments (3 given)```
Extra analysis of the logs an code points towards this file of
`python-nova` package:
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/nova/virt/disk/mount/api.py
The problem seems that the call at line 251
```
246 def mnt_dev(self):
247 """Mount the device into the file system."""
248 LOG.debug("Mount %(dev)s on %(dir)s",
249 {'dev': self.mapped_device, 'dir': self.mount_dir})
250 out, err = nova.privsep.fs.mount(None, self.mapped_device,
251 self.mount_dir)
252 if err:
253 self.error = _('Failed to mount filesystem: %s') % err
254 LOG.debug(self.error)
255 return False
256
257 self.mounted = True
258 return True
```
is not matching the function signature defined in /usr/lib/python2.7
/dist-packages/nova/privsep/fs.py as:
```
30 def mount(fstype, device, mountpoint, options):
31 mount_cmd = ['mount']
32 if fstype:
33 mount_cmd.extend(['-t', fstype])
34 if options is not None:
35 mount_cmd.extend(options)
36 mount_cmd.extend([device, mountpoint])
37 return processutils.execute(*mount_cmd)
```
So, it should be safe just to add `None` as `options` parameter.
