[Bug 1883969] [NEW] Nova doesn't fail at API layer when image_size > volume_size with BFV

 

Public bug reported:

When trying to boot an instance where the image size is larger than the
volume size, there seems to be no 'protection' mechanism of stopping you
from doing that, it ends up failing in the compute manager layer making
it more complicated for the user to debug.

We should probably fail early in the API (just like we do for non-BFV
instances).
