  Cannot rebuild baremetal instance when vm_state is ERROR

Bug description:
  You can rebuild an instance in ERROR since Havana:
  http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/nova/commit/?id=99c51e34230394cadf0b82e364ea10c38e193979

  This change broke this feature for Ironic since Liberty:
  http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/nova/commit/?id=ea3967a1fb47297608defd680286fd9051ff5bbe

  The change adds a check for vm_state=ERROR when waiting for baremetal
  instance to be ACTIVE.

  The vm_state is restored to ACTIVE only restored after a successful
  build. This means rebuilding a baremetal instance using the Ironic
  driver is impossible because wait_for_active fails if vm_state=ERROR
  is found.
