Code Issues Proposed changes

Correct documented service upgrade order 

We had inconsistent service upgrade order information in our upgrade
documentation. This corrects the order to be consistent with our
recommended order of operations.

1. cinder-api services should go first. In HA deployment you're typically
running them behind a load balancer (e.g. HAProxy), so you need to take one
service instance out of the balancer, shut it down, upgrade the code and
dependencies, and start the service again. Then you can plug it back into
the load balancer. Cinder's internal mechanisms will make sure that new
c-api will detect that it's running with older versions and will downgrade
any communication.
1. The first service is cinder-scheduler. It is load-balanced by the message
queue, so the only thing you need to worry about is to shut it down
gracefully (using ``SIGTERM`` signal) to make sure it will finish all the
requests being processed before shutting down. Then you should upgrade the
code and restart the service.
