melanie witt db455548a1 Use force=True for os-brick disconnect during delete
The 'force' parameter of os-brick's disconnect_volume() method allows
callers to ignore flushing errors and ensure that devices are being
removed from the host.

We should use force=True when we are going to delete an instance to
avoid leaving leftover devices connected to the compute host which
could then potentially be reused to map to volumes to an instance that
should not have access to those volumes.

We can use force=True even when disconnecting a volume that will not be
deleted on termination because os-brick will always attempt to flush
and disconnect gracefully before forcefully removing devices.

Closes-Bug: #2004555

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.
