Title:
  Fernet tokens with base64 padding are not URL-safe

Status in OpenStack Identity (Keystone):
  Fix Released
Status in OpenStack Identity  (Keystone) Middleware:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  The safe_quote() method, which happens unconditionally on verify_token
  in keystone auth_token middleware, doesn't seem to work when being
  used with Fernet, PKI, or PKIz tokens [1]. This method modifies the
  token [2] before passing it to Keystone, and in the Fernet case, the
  token_formatter is unable to decrypt the token. This is not apparent
  with UUID formatted tokens because they are UUID safe, given
  uuid.uuid4().hex.

  This can be recreated using keystone-deploy's fernet-token branch, as
  well as the PKI and PKIz configurations [3].
