Image Signing and Verification Support

Registered by Brianna Poulos

OpenStack currently doesn't support either of the following features:

* Signing and signature validation of bootable images
* Validation of uploaded signed images

This blueprint adds support for both of these features. If an uploaded image is signed, Glance will verify the signature prior to storing it. In each of the uploadable cases, proper entry of the appropriate crypto mode selection and keys will be necessary. Deploying authentication will protect against counterfeit images as well as unauthorized images. Integration with Barbican will provide key management support for signing keys. This feature improves the enterprise-ready posture of OpenStack.
