      Overview
      Upgrade Pure cinder driver to use REST 2.x calls, rather than the historic (and function-limited REST 1.x).

      This is partner driver request to backport and update their cinder-specific driver to the  Epoxy version.  This is driver-only code, not core Cinder changes. 

      Goals / Acceptance Criteria 

      • Backport the driver and deliver in the RHOS-18 
      • Pass downstream regression CI tests for Cinder

      Use Cases

      • Updated Pure Cinder driver with OpenStack

      Out of Scope

      • No RH testing needed other than Cinder automation
      • Other patches beyond the scope of this change set.

      Documentation Considerations

      No RH customer docs

      We will also be backporting a number of feature enhancements to support RansomWare detection and support for NVMe-TCP VLANs, correct backend QoS setting and enhanced schedule reporting characteristics
