Andrey Volkov f7e9f312a0 Add nova-manage cell_v2 create_cell command
Currently, all of the commands that create a new cell require the
presence of compute hosts, else they won't create a cell mapping.
In the use case of a fresh install, it's reasonable that compute
host records may not yet exist at the time of cells v2 setup.

This provides a way for operators to create a new empty cell at
setup time and defer adding hosts to the cell until they have
started their compute hosts later (via the 'discover_hosts'
command).

The command optionally accepts a database connection url and
message queue transport url, else it will take the values from
the nova.conf. It returns the uuid of the newly created cell.
