Add a task to force revert a resize migration
Currently in cases, where the resize takes longer than usual and the customer can no longer tolerate the downtime or the resize goes to error (cbs-detach failures or others) the admins need a way to revert the resize.
But due to several constraints on the vm_state and the migration state, the 'revert-resize' api does not work well. They need a way to *force* revert-resize that would work without the above contraints but would check for the source being up before actually reverting, to prevent data loss.
As part of this extension when server action os-resetState action is called with
fix-failed-
the server migration status is set to 'finished' so that the server
resize can be reverted

Whiteboard
One more option could be reverting the resize automatically on error instead of marking the instance in 'error'?
Of course, this would be an extension to not change the existing behavior. - Aarti

Support should be able to revert-resize when it fails or hangs
pulling off the havana list until it seems like there's more consensus around the patch. --russellb

Looks like not many of them are affected by this problem because I don't see a lot of responses.
It's a big problem for our Admins now. So we are trying to get this in asap, i.e, havana.
Let's try to decide on an approach to solve this problem and go ahead with it.
