Michael Still 861646d1ba Implement privsep boilerplate in cinder.
This includes implementing a first trivial example of how to use
privsep to run something as root, specifically the cgroup throttling
driver.

This code is modelled strongly on how nova has chosen to use privsep.
Consistency is probably good here, but it does imply that the cinder
team is ok with the decisons nova has made about implementation.

Privsep transitions. Cinder is transitioning from using the older style
rootwrap privilege escalation path to the new style Oslo privsep path.
This should improve performance and security of Cinder in the long term.
- |
Privsep daemons are now started by Cinder when required. These daemons can
be started via rootwrap if required. rootwrap configs therefore need to
be updated to include new privsep daemon invocations.
upgrade:

The following commands are no longer required to be listed in your rootwrap
configuration: cgcreate; and cgset.
