Gyorgy Szombathelyi da93e11794 Modernize the nova client in cinder
The nova client (used by the InstanceLocalityFilter for example)
seems to have obscure config options (compared to other projects),
and seems it is buggy too. Fix this by introducing a [nova] section,
where the usual auth parameters can be put (auth_type, auth_url,
username, password, etc...), and deprecate the old options.
Also doesn't play with the Service Catalog, the authentication plugins
can handle it, use a Token authentication plugin when using
the user context, and removed the separate usage of the admin endpoint.

Closes-bug: #1686616
DocImpact: to use a Nova connection (e.g. for InstanceLocalityFilter),
one has to configure the [nova] section.
