Skip instance backup image creation when rotation 0
This is explained in detail in bug 1627597.
If you create an instance backup by passing rotation 0
to the backup api, nova creates an image and takes a snapshot
of an instance and then deletes it immediately.
This blueprint proposes to add a new microversion to skip instance
backup image creation when user passes rotation parameter value as 0
to createBackup server action API.

There have been no updates on the spec or in the mailing list about people using the backup API and needing this change, so deferring this from Rocky. If this changes in Stein, please re-propose the spec with additional justification. -- mriedem 20180607
