Matt Riedemann 85235d229b doc: fix link to creating unit tests in contributor guide
The testing strategy doc was linking to the hacking repo docs
on creating unit tests, which are very specific to creating
unit tests for hacking rules.

This changes the link to the 'creating unit tests' section in
the HACKING.rst file, which has more information on testing
within nova.

Along with that change, the HACKING.rst testing section is
updated a bit to point out that we use stestr now instead of
testr and adds a proper link to the development environment
quickstart docs.

The nova/tests/unit/README.rst actually needs a lot of work,
but that's left for another day.

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:

Developers

For information on how to contribute to Nova, please see the contents of the CONTRIBUTING.rst.

Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file, and pass all unit tests.

Further developer focused documentation is available at:

Other Information

During each Summit and Project Team Gathering, we agree on what the whole community wants to focus on for the upcoming release. The plans for nova can be found at:
