Public bug reported: Nova will delete all backup images according the 'backup_type' parameter when 'rotation' equals to 0.
But according the logic now, Nova will generate one new backup, and then delete it.. So It's weird to snapshot a useless backup firstly IMO. We need to add one new branch here: if 'rotation' is equal to 0, no need to backup, just rotate it.
