Update rbac_rule_validation docstrings

This commit updates, clarifies and elaborates on pre-existing
docstrings in ``rbac_rule_validation``. Currently, some of the
documentation is either unclear, slightly out of date, or not
informative enough. This commit seeks to change those documentation
deficiencies.

"""A decorator which does a policy check and matches it against test run.
"""A decorator for verifying policy enforcement.
A decorator which allows for positive and negative RBAC testing. Given
an OpenStack service and a policy action enforced by that service, an
oslo.policy lookup is performed by calling `authority.get_permission`.
Alternatively, the RBAC tests can run against a YAML file that defines
policy requirements.
A decorator which allows for positive and negative RBAC testing. Given:
The following cases are possible:
* an OpenStack service,
* a policy action (``rule``) enforced by that service, and
* the test role defined by ``[patrole] rbac_test_role``
* If `allowed` is True and the test passes, this is a success.
* If `allowed` is True and the test fails, this is a failure.
* If `allowed` is False and the test passes, this is a failure.
* If `allowed` is False and the test fails, this is a success.
determines whether the test role has sufficient permissions to perform an
API call that enforces the ``rule``.
:param service: A OpenStack service: for example, "nova" or "neutron".
:param rule: A policy action defined in a policy.json file (or in code).
:param admin_only: Skips over oslo.policy check because the policy action
defined by `rule` is not enforced by the service's policy enforcement
logic. For example, Keystone v2 performs an admin check for most of its
endpoints. If True, `rule` is effectively ignored.
This decorator should only be applied to an instance or subclass of
`tempest.base.BaseTestCase`.
The result from ``_is_authorized`` is used to determine the *expected*
test result. The *actual* test result is determined by running the
Tempest test this decorator applies to.
Below are the following possibilities from comparing the *expected* and
*actual* results:
1) If *expected* is True and the test passes (*actual*), this is a success.
2) If *expected* is True and the test fails (*actual*), this results in a
`Forbidden` exception failure.
3) If *expected* is False and the test passes (*actual*), this results in
an `OverPermission` exception failure.
4) If *expected* is False and the test fails (*actual*), this is a success.
As such, negative and positive testing can be applied using this decorator.
:param service: A OpenStack service. Examples: "nova" or "neutron".
:param rule: A policy action defined in a policy.json file (or in
code).
.. note::
Patrole currently only supports custom JSON policy files.
:param admin_only: Skips over `oslo.policy` check because the policy action
defined by `rule` is not enforced by the service's policy
enforcement engine. For example, Keystone v2 performs an admin check
for most of its endpoints. If True, `rule` is effectively
ignored.
:param expected_error_code: Overrides default value of 403 (Forbidden)
with endpoint-specific error code. Currently only supports 403 and 404.
Support for 404 is needed because some services, like Neutron,
intentionally throw a 404 for security reasons.
:raises NotFound: if `service` is invalid or
if Tempest credentials cannot be found.
:raises Forbidden: for bullet (2) above.
:raises RbacOverPermission: for bullet (3) above.
.. warning::
A 404 should not be provided *unless* the endpoint masks a
`Forbidden` exception as a `Not Found` exception.
:param extra_target_data: Dictionary, keyed with `oslo.policy` generic
check names, whose values are string literals that reference nested
`tempest.base.BaseTestCase` attributes. Used by `oslo.policy` for
performing matching against attributes that are sent along with the API
calls. Example::
extra_target_data={
"target.token.user_id":
"os_alt.auth_provider.credentials.user_id"
})
:raises NotFound: If `service` is invalid or if Tempest credentials cannot
be found.
:raises Forbidden: For item (2) above.
:raises RbacOverPermission: For item (3) above.

@rbac_rule_validation.action(
service="nova", rule="os_compute_api:os-agents")

# The call to ``switch_role`` is mandatory.
