[Deepak] A few extra files but you are installing keystone client unnecessarily

[Deepak] Isn't it service independent ? All the services are using it,
so they might as well borrow it from openstack-common

The reason I have suggested to include it in openstack-common because
I think it is installed in all the nodes as all the services are
dependent on openstack-common. I am not sure if we will run into
maintenance issues.
