Matt Riedemann a6ad102c9d Update placement config reno
This addresses some review comments from when this reno
was added, namely (1) that you have to restart nova-compute
to try and get a connection to the placement API if the initial
connection fails due to the service catalog not having a placement
entry, and (2) that the [placement] section in nova.conf has the
usual keystone auth options for connecting to the placement API.

features:
- The nova-compute worker now communicates with the new placement API
service. Nova determines the placement API service by querying the
OpenStack service catalog for the service with a service type of
'placement'. If there is no placement entry in the service catalog,
nova-compute will log a warning and no longer try to reconnect to the
placement API until the nova-worker process is restarted.
- A new [placement] section is added to the nova.conf configuration file for
configuration options affecting how Nova interacts with the new placement
API service. This contains the usual keystone auth and session options.
