Updates the rxtx_factor validations in the instance_types modules so that rxtx_factor is validated as a float. Given that rxtx_factor is stored as a float in the database this makes sense... and also adheres to some of the extension documentation as well (although some of the extension docs were incorrect as well). Previously rxtx_factor was being cast into an int which caused it to be stored and displayed incorrectly via the API. This patchset adds a test which fails with the old code. Additionally some of the API docs are corrected so that rxtx_factor is listed as a float in all examples. Fixes LP Bug #1081287. Change-Id: Iae98522a1f2ed63cbd2497b0b0af5ac2d9bb935c

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:
Developers wishing to work on the OpenStack Nova project should always base their work on the latest Nova code, available from the master GIT repository at:
Developers should also join the discussion on the mailing list, at:
Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file, and pass all unit tests. Further developer focused documentation is available at:
