    Don't allow EC2 removal of security group in use.

    Fix bug 817872.

    This patch modifies the behavior of removing security groups via the EC2
    API to better match the EC2 API spec. The EC2 documentation says that a
    group that is still in use can not be removed.

    A new function has been added to the db API to find out whether a
    particular security group is still in use. "In use" is defined as
    applied to an active instance, or applied to another group that has not
    been deleted.

    Unit tests have been updated to ensure that an error is raised when
    these conditions are hit.
