Ramana Raja 08ffd6bdb5 cephfs_native: enhance update_access()
During recovery/maintenance mode, the driver applied all the
rules it was expected to sync. It couldn't e.g., remove the
already existing but unwanted access rules from the backend.
This was because CephFSVolumeClient, the interface to Ceph
backend, did not have the ability to fetch the existing
access rules from the backend.

Since the following commits in Ceph,
master branch, https://github.com/ceph/ceph/commits/1c1d65a45f4574
Jewel branch,  https://github.com/ceph/ceph/commits/e1eb8afea9f202
the CephFSVolumeClient is versioned and can list the existing
access rules. Use this to more faithfully implement update_access()
and ensure backwards compatibility with earlier versions of
CephFSVolumeClient.

Also, when authorizing access for a ceph auth ID using
CephFSVolumeClient's authorize(), pass the project ID of the
share as an additional argument. This is required (since
the above mentioned commits) to retrieve the access key of
the ceph auth ID.

The driver's update_access() now returns access_keys as a
dictionary with access rule ID and access key as key, value
pairs. This would be useful once Manila can store the
access_keys in its DB and expose them to the user.
