Previously, clients could use XML external entities (XXEs) to read
arbitrary files from proxy-servers and inject the content into the
request. Since many S3 APIs reflect request content back to the user,
this could be used to extract any secrets that the swift user could
read, such as tempauth credentials, keymaster secrets, etc.
Now, disable entity resolution -- any unknown entities will be replaced
with an empty string. Without resolving the entities, the request is
still processed.
