Title:
  Avoid websocket proxies needing to have matching have config
  '*_baseurl' configs with compute nodes

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  As part of the fix for the related bug - we've added protocol checking
  to mitigate MITM attacks, however we base protocol checking on a config
  option that is normally only intended for compute hosts.

  This is quite user hostile, as it is now important that all nodes
  running compute and proxy services have this option in sync.

  We can do better than that - we can persist the URL the client is
  expected to use, and once we get it back on token validation, we can
  make sure that the request is using the intended protocol, mitigating
  the MITM injected script attacks.
