Bug description:
  The is_admin_project flag is used in a token to indicate that the
  current token is scoped to a project that is indicated as the admin
  project. Currently this is only added to the token when the
  admin_project is True and nothing added when False.

  From a policy perspective we need to write policy files that are
  backwards compatible, however we cannot determine the difference in
  policy between is_admin_project == False and the admin project not
  being set from config because both result in no flag being set in the
  token.

  If we were to enforce is_admin_project == True on a deployment that
  did not use it this would completely break backwards compatibility as
  the is_admin_project check would never pass.

  To fix this we need to make is_admin_project a required field of a
  token at least when the admin project is set.

  Because the current default is that every project can be the admin
  project, the default value of is_admin_project must be True. For
  deployments that do not configure an admin project we can either set
  is_admin_project=True for every project, or we can exclude the field
  from the token. I think exclude makes sense because the check from a
  policy perspective is going to have to default to True for backwards
  compatibility and you can then tell from a token whether the
  admin_project concept is in use (i'm not sure if this is an
  information leakage problem - please comment on preference).
