Title:
[OSSA-2017-005] nova rebuild ignores all image properties and

Bug description:
Big picture: If some image has some restriction on aggregates or hosts
it can be run on, tenant may use nova rebuild command to circumvent
those restrictions. Main issue is with ImagePropertiesFilter, but it
may cause issues with combination of flavor/image (for example allows
to run license restricted OS (Windows) on host which has no such
license, or rebuild instance with cheap flavor with image which is
restricted only for high-priced flavors).
I don't know if this is a security bug or not, if you would find it
non-security issue, please remove the security flag.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Set up nova with ImagePropertiesFilter or IsolatedHostsFilter active. They should allows to run 'image1' only on 'host1', but never on 'host2'.
2. Boot instance with some other (non-restricted) image on 'host2'.
3. Use nova rebuild INSTANCE image1
Expected result:
nova rejects rebuild because given image ('image1') may not run on
'host2'.
Actual result:
nova happily rebuild instance with image1 on host2, violating
restrictions.
Checked affected version: mitaka.
I believe, due to the way 'rebuild' command is working, newton and
master are affected too.
