Aaron Rosen bd4a85d67f Add X-Tenant-ID to metadata request
Previously, one could update a port's device_id to be that of
another tenant's instance_id and then be able to retrieve that
instance's metadata. In order to prevent this X-Tenant-ID is now
passed in the metadata request to nova and nova then checks that
X-Tenant-ID also matches the tenant_id for the instance against it's
database to ensure it's not being spoofed.

DocImpact - When upgrading OpenStack nova and neturon, neutron
            should be updated first (and neutron-metadata-agent
            restarted before nova is upgraded) in order to minimize
            downtime. This is because there is also a patch to nova
            which has checks X-Tenant-ID against it's database
            therefore neutron-metadata-agent needs to pass that
            before nova is upgraded for metadata to work.
