    Fix unspecified bahavior on GET /servers/detail?tenant_id=X as admin
    
    When an admin calls /v2.1/servers/detail?tenant_id=XX, then the
    `get_all` method of nova.compute.api.API is called with 2
    conflicting search options: {'tenant_id': XX, 'project_id': YY}.
    But because, latter on, in that `get_all` method we define a dict
    called filter_mapping, on which we iter upon, which value takes
    precedence depends on the order in which the dict is iterated upon.
    
    As the order in unpredictable and varies between Py2 and Py3, this
    is problematic. Especially, on Python 2 hash randomization is
    disabled by default but it's enabled by default on Py3 (unless
    the PYTHONHASHSEED env var is set to a fixed value) [0]
    
    The (unreliable) order we iterate on items of that `filter_mapping`
    dict is why the Tempest test_list_servers_by_admin_with_specified_tenant
    test randomly fails on Py35.
    
    This patch ensures that, if the all_tenants search option is
    not set, then the `tenant_id` search option is ignored. Note that
    this *is* the current behavior on Py27, as documented in lp:#1185290
    and tested by Tempest here [1].

Title:
  /v2.1/servers/detail?tenant_id=XX returns unpredictable results

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Fix Released
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova) ocata series:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Found this while investigating why the tempest test
  test_list_servers_by_admin_with_specified_tenant randomly fails on
  Py35.

  This test produces the following API call:

  GET /v2.1/servers/detail?tenant_id=XXX

  Which calls this method in Nova:

  nova.api.openstack.compute.servers.ServersController.detail()

  In the _get_servers() method that detail() calls, for some reason (bug
  ? [1]), the 'project_id' is added to the search options. So now, we
  see that get_all() is called with both tenant_id and project_id:

  Searching by: {'project_id': '74e1044b53de44d1bac80cded5146504',
  'deleted': False, 'tenant_id': '153d2038e0bc4ea99819a21a55cb66ea'}
  get_all /opt/stack/new/nova/nova/compute/api.py:2336

  Now, in nova/nova/compute/api.py in the get_all() method, there's a
  dict called filter_mapping, that is iterated upon. I believe, based on
  which order the dict (i.e the search options) is iterated upon, either
  tenant_id or project_id gets rewritten. This leads to random return
  values.
