Object Version Registry

Registered by Dan Smith

Nova needs to maintain a registry of all the object versions for all nodes so that we know what version of each must be sent to a given node.

Whiteboard

Proposed design:

- A new API to conductor that lets a node register its object versions in a single go
- Compute will do this on startup
- Conductor will register its own versions on its own startup, always storing the latest version of all its objects
- On receipt from a compute node, conductor will store only the versions that are older than it knows to be current for each object type
- A new API will be needed to query the registry for things like the API nodes

This will be required before we can do any migrations that do online data upgrading, as we will need to know when all conductor nodes have been upgraded to allow the migration to proceed.
