Public bug reported:
Based on the investigation here https://bugs.launchpad.net/charm-
keystone/+bug/1880847 it was determined that rules from policy files
located in the directory specified in the policy_dirs option
(/etc/<config_dir>/policy.d by default) are not re-applied after the
rules from the primary policy file is re-applied due to a change.
This leads to scenarios where incorrect rule combinations are active.
Example from the test case in 1880847:
* policy.json gets read with the following rule;
"identity:list_credentials": "rule:admin_required or user_id:%(user_id)s",
* rule.yaml from policy.d is read with the following rule;
{'identity:list_credentials': '!'}
* policy.json's mtime gets updated (with or without a content change) and
overrides the rule to be
"identity:list_credentials": "rule:admin_required or user_id:%(user_id)s",
* rule.yaml doesn't get reapplied since it hasn't changed.
