Bug Description

Hi !
in "cactus" when you use KVM and have the flag "--start_guests_on_host_boot=true" set on nova.conf, if you issue an euca-reboot, you loose the "autostart" capabilities ( you loose the symlink in /etc/libvirt/qemu/autostart), so, we replaced in /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/nova/virt/libvirt_conn.py function "reboot"

The line :
    self._create_new_domain(xml)
for the line:
    domainPT = self._create_new_domain(xml)
    if FLAGS.start_guests_on_host_boot:
            LOG.debug(_("instance %s: setting autostart ON") %
                      instance['name'])
            domainPT.setAutostart(1)

Hope it helps !
Cheers !
