Matt Riedemann 02586e698b Remove unused placement_database config options
The placement_database config options were added in Newton
but the actual code to use the options was reverted and is
not used. The help text actually has a typo (Ocata was 15.0.0,
not 14.0.0) and, more importantly, the help text makes it sound
like you should really be setting up a separate database for the
placement service but we don't actually use these options, we use
the api_database options for all of the placement data models.

To avoid confusion until this is actually supported, let's just
remove the options which should have been cleaned up as part of
39fb302fd9 anyway.

Conflicts:
      nova/conf/database.py

NOTE(mriedem): The conflict was due to change
I4cd84f1750ed7cf6c595cec6d6f52b79c73c311b not being in Newton.
