Ian Main a5962d1078 Authentication Overhaul
This patch updates the authentication system set up in heat:

- We now authenticate against the 'heat' service at the entry
  point to each api call in the engine.
- We are now using the 'Context' class to contain the authentication
  information as intended.
- The two context classes are unified and we now use the same one
  for both WSGI and RPC.  This is the intended design as the
  context is loaded by the WSGI middleware and then passed into the
  RPC methods.
- We are now doing token authentication in the API that works with
  both native keystone and AWS style authentication.  That token is
  then passed on to the engine for further authentication for various
  endpoints.

Note that the heat-api-paste.ini file requires updating in order for
this to work on your system.  Admin user and password must be set
properly in the authtoken section in order to perform token based
authentication.

I suspect there will be a few bugs in here yet.  This is just part of
the authentication/identification changes we need to make but I wanted
to get this in so we could continue to work with a boto based client.

HEAT

This is an OpenStack style project that provides a REST API to orchestrate multiple cloud applications implementing well-known standards such as AWS CloudFormation and TOSCA.

Currently the developers are focusing on AWS CloudFormation but are watching the development of the TOSCA specification.

Why heat? It makes the clouds rise and keeps them there.
