Public bug reported:

The configuration files (glance-api.conf, glance-cache.conf, glance-
registry.conf etc) are currently manually synced with the options
defined in the code. This is causing an unnecessary amount of
contributor's effort to maintain, especially when we can automatically
keep them up to date using oslo-config-generator. They have also not
been correctly updated in the past; glance-cache.conf does not have any
of the deprecated glance store options marked as such, for example.

A slight complication is some options currently have better
documentation in the example config files, rather than the help text
defined in the oslo.config option (example on current master:
[DEFAULT]/property_protection_file). These options should be updated
with the better documentation before automatic syncing takes place.
