Dan Smith d8b30c3772 Fix regression preventing reporting negative resources for overcommit
In Nova prior to Ocata, the scheduler computes available resources for
a compute node, attempting to mirror the same calculation that happens
locally. It does this to determine if a new instance should fit on the
node. If overcommit is being used, some of these numbers can be negative.

In change 016b810f67 we changed the
compute side to never report negative resources, which was an ironic-
specific fix for nodes that are offline. That, however, has been
corrected for ironic nodes in 047da6498d.
Since the base change to the resource tracker has caused the scheduler
and compute to do different math, we need to revert it to avoid the
scheduler sending instances to nodes where it believes -NNN is the
lower limit (with overcommit), but the node is reporting zero.

This doesn't actually affect Ocata because of our use of the placement
engine. However, this code is still in master and needs to be backported.
This part of the change actually didn't even have a unit test, so
this patch adds one to validate that the resource tracker will
calculate and report negative resources.

NOTE(mriedem): The conflict is due to change
I6827137f35c0cb4f9fc4c6f753d9a035326ed01b not being in Newton.
