Title:
  Heat environments don't work for local files

Status in OpenStack Dashboard (Horizon):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  There is an issue with environment files (and heat templates which
  contain a file reference to a nested stack directly), which means that
  they don't work via Horizon.

  The issue is you pass a template and optionally an environment file to
  Horizon via the file dialog, but Horizon doesn't have any way to
  resolve the file references and populate the "files" part of the API
  call to create the stack.

  Additionally, the environment is not passed at all when trying to
  create the stack, so template validation actually fails before you hit
  the problem above.. ;)

  Here are some simple examples which demonstrate the problem:

  In all of the following examples, a default nova keypair of
  "stack_key" is expected, as is a glance image of
  "cirros-0.3.2-x86_64-disk", these can be overridden or modified
  obviously.

  1. Template referencing a nested stack directly (no environment)

  https://github.com/hardys/demo_templates/tree/master/juno_summit_intro_to_heat/example2_server_with_volume_nested

  This can be launched on the CLI via:

  heat --debug template-validate -f server_with_volume.yaml
  heat --debug stack-create test1 -f server_with_volume.yaml

  The --debug will show the content of the API call, which should
  hopefully help see what is missing from the horizon call (files
  section missing from the create)

  2. Template referencing nested stack via environment

  https://github.com/hardys/demo_templates/tree/master/juno_summit_intro_to_heat/example4_provider_environment

  This can be launched on the CLI via:

  heat --debug template-validate -f server_with_volume_env.yaml -e env_server_with_volume.yaml
  heat --debug stack-create test2 -f server_with_volume_env.yaml -e env_server_with_volume.yaml

  Currently it's not possible to launch either stack via horizon, unless
  the local file references are replaced with URLs.
