raghavendrat b7c81a7b42 3PAR: Provide new option to specify NSP for single path attachments
This fix aims to resolve below mentioned bugs:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/os-brick/+bug/1812665
https://bugs.launchpad.net/cinder/+bug/1809249
https://bugs.launchpad.net/cinder/+bug/1734917

Given a system connected to HPE 3PAR via FC and multipath is disabled.
When user tries to create bootable volume, it fails intermittently
with following error:
Fibre Channel volume device not found

This happens when a zone is created using second or later target nsp
from 3PAR backend.
In this case, HPE 3PAR client code picks up first target nsp to form
initiator target map.

To avoid above mentioned failure, user can specify target nsp in 3PAR
backend section of cinder.conf as follows:

hpe3par_target_nsp = <n:s:p>

This target information is read from cinder.conf and respective
wwn information is fetched.
Later initiator target map is created using wwn information and
bootable volume is created successfully.
