Add DB2 as an option for backend database

Registered by Thuy Christenson

Current OpenStack supports multiple open source database as the backend database, for example: MySQL, SQLite, PostgreSQL are the default supported database for the community.

I plan to contribue changes to Keystone to allow the use of DB2 as the backing database, and doing so will require me to:

1. Update KeyStone project to support DB2 initialization and access by updating the SQLALchemy-migrate code.
2. Run tempest on a DB2 installed environment

Whiteboard

changes to tempest are obviously out of scope for this bp, but what about the migration code is blocking db2? given that db2 is supported by sqlalchemy, i would think it's simply a matter of changing your connection string and filing bugs against any specific failures? (marking as obsolete until i hear otherwise)
