[Openstack] Quotas for nonexistent projects

I'm not sure if there is a fixable bug at this point.  Projects are moving into keystone, so there won't be any useful way for nova to verify whether a project exists before creating a quota for it.  As long as we are maintaining quotas in nova, this will be the case.  It may be that quotas eventually move into keystone as well, at which point some more robust verification could be done.
