Move auth system fom novaclient to keystoneclient

Registered by Chmouel Boudjnah

This blueprint has been superseded. See the newer blueprint "Use common connection and auth plugin" for updated plans.

Historically we had auth_system in novaclient used for Rackspace Cloud key based auth system but now used for other things :

We are using it for X.509 auth, where we need to authenticate against
the HTTP server where keystone is running with the user certificate
instead of using the passwordCredentials dict. Basic or Digest auth are
other use cases for this system.

We should move that feature from novaclient to keystone if we ever want to finally move novaclient to keystoneclient.
