Deprecate root_helper in favor of rootwrap_config

Mark the root_helper option deprecated and introduce usage of
the rootwrap_config option instead. The root_helper option will
still fully be supported in Folsom, but will be removed in Grizzly.

Transition notes: you should replace:
root_helper=sudo nova-rootwrap /etc/nova/rootwrap.conf

by:
rootwrap_config=/etc/nova/rootwrap.conf

Implements bp deprecate-root-helper

Filters which commands nova is allowed to run as another user.
To use this, you should set the following in nova.conf:
root_helper=sudo nova-rootwrap /etc/nova/rootwrap.conf
rootwrap_config=/etc/nova/rootwrap.conf
You also need to let the nova user run nova-rootwrap as root in sudoers:
nova ALL = (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/nova-rootwrap /etc/nova/rootwrap.conf *
