Peter Wang 572b84c073 VNX: New Cinder driver in Newton
Previous VNX driver implemented all array operations
in driver, which complicated the drive logic.
In this patch, we leverage a library named
storops to interact with VNX array.
New changes below:

* Consolidate VNX driver entry, both
FC and iSCSI driver use the same entry name:
volume_driver =
cinder.volume.drivers.emc.vnx.driver.EMCVNXDriver

* A new driver option is introduced:
storage_protocol = <fc|iscsi>

* some existing bugs no longer existed.
