Hi,

We have the configurations of keystone auth_token in api-paste.ini.
keystoneclient.middleware.auth_token now allows the main application
such as quantum to have auth_token configuration in its configuration
file e.g., quantum.conf.

I think it is better to have auth_token configurations in quantum.conf.
If so users only need to customize quantum.conf and there is no need
to modify api-paste.ini. I think api-paste.ini is regarded as a part of
quantum-server since it defines the pipeline of quantum-server, so
it would be better users do not modify it.

Since auth_token has a backward compatibility,
users who already use api-paste.ini can continue to use it.
auth_token first tries the configurations in /etc/quantum/api-paste.ini
and then the above configurations.

I think this change has no risk and simplifies users' configurations.

To do this, we just need to add an example to auto_token configurations
below to quantum.conf and update the admin guide.
(In addition, need to update devstack at some timing)

Glance already adopts this scheme, and nova does not.

------------------------------------------------------------
[keystone_authtoken]
auth_host = 127.0.0.1
auth_port = 35357
auth_protocol = http
admin_tenant_name = %SERVICE_TENANT_NAME%
admin_user = %SERVICE_USER%
admin_password = %SERVICE_PASSWORD%
signing_dir = /var/lib/quantum/keystone-signing
------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks,
Akihiro
