Granular placement policy

Registered by Matt Riedemann

Build on https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/placement-api-policy-authz from Ocata to provider granular policy enforcement in the Placement API.

Currently, everything in the Placement API is hard-coded to require users with the 'admin' role.

In this blueprint, we will add per-route policy rules and allow the ability for operators to define their own rules.

Policies will all be defined in code and documented per: https://governance.openstack.org/tc/goals/queens/policy-in-code.html

Whiteboard

There is a WIP patch started here: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/524425/

There was agreement in today's nova meeting to approve this as a specless blueprint since the changes will be backward compatible by default and mostly mechanical. -- mriedem 20180315
