May I suggest that we decouple these changes by doing both? Oslo's
RequestContext object can have the enginefacade decorator applied to it,
so any project which uses it doesn't have to apply it themselves.
Meanwhile, the decorator remains part of the public api for projects not
using the oslo RequestContext.

I suggest that we'll probably stay with a decorator within oslo, anyway.
It doesn't lend itself well to a Mixin, as we need a reference to a
specific _TransactionContextManager, and moving code directly into
RequestContext would be a very invasive coupling.
