Use cell targeted context to query BDMs for metadata
The metadata service supports a multicell deployment in a configuration
where the nova-api service implements the metadata API. In this case the
metadata query needs to be cell targeted. This was partly implemented
already. The instance itself is queried from the cell DB properly.
However the BDM data used the non targeted context resulting in an empty
BDM returned by the metadata service.
Functional reproduction test is not added as I did not find a way to
have a cell setup in the functional test that reproduce the problem. I
reproduced the bug and tested the fix in a devstack.

Title:
nova-api returns empty block-device-mapping in metadata queries
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
Fix Released
Bug description:
Description
===========
currently in a single cell deployment with nova-api acting as metadata server, queries for block-device-mapping end up going to the nova_cell0/block_device_mapping table instead of nova${the_actual_cell}/block_device_mapping, resulting in empty results other than the dynamically generated root/ami entries.
This results in an empty response, even though the devices are mapped
and present in the appropriate table.
Steps to reproduce
==================
1. Use nova train or greater (tested on stable/train current HEAD)
2. curl 169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/block-device-mapping/ from an instance with volumes attached
3. receive only root and ami, no entries for volumes
Expected result
===============
There should be entries in block-device-mapping queries for each volume mapped to the instance.
Actual result
=============
There are no entries other than root/ami in the block-device-mapping
Notes
===========
This is "fixed" by pointing nova-api at the nova database instead of nova_cell0
This bug affects Train+, but likely any deployment with multiple
cells.
