Christian Schwede f08905d7ff Decrease Swift proxy timeouts for GET/HEAD requests
Adds a new parameter named SwiftProxyRecoverableNodeTimeout. The default
node timeout is 10 seconds in Swift, however this has been set to 60
seconds in TripleO in case there are slow nodes. However, this affects
all requests - GET, HEAD and PUT. GET/HEAD requests are typically much
faster, thus it makes sense to use a lower timeout to recover earlier
from node failures.

This increases overall stability, because the proxy can select another
backend node to retry the request if an initial HEAD request already
returns a timeout, for example when uploading Glance images.
