[Bug 1403544] [NEW] Empty string in key_name treated as None but gets into DB

 

Public bug reported:

When creating instance, it is possible to specify "'key_name': ''".
This empty string is treated as None by
nova.compute.api._validate_and_build_base_options(), but gets written to
DB.  Then it breaks Horizon when it creates the "Decrypt Password"
button for instance details view, because 'key_name' is checked to be
not None.
