    Add policy granularity to the Flavors API
    
    The same policy rule (os_compute_api:os-flavor-manage) is being used
    for the create and delete actions of the flavors REST API. It is thus
    impossible to provide different RBAC for the create and delete actions
    based on roles. To address this, changes are made to have separate
    policy rules for each action.
    
    Most other places in nova (and OpenStack in general) have separate
    policy rules for each action. This affords the ultimate flexibility
    to deployers, who can obviously use the same rule if that is what they
    want.
    
    To address backwards compatibility, the new rules added to the
    flavor_manage.py policy file, default to the existing rule
    (os_compute_api:os-flavor-manage). That way across upgrades this
    should ensure if an existing admin has customised the rule, it keeps
    working, but folks that know about the new setting can override the
    default rule. In addtion, a verify_deprecated_policy method is added
    to see if the old policy action is being configured instead of the
    new actions.

Title:
  Compute flavor management not granular enough by policy and code

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  We need the Nova policy and code to support more granularity (i.e.
  Create/Delete) for Flavor management. Current policy check only checks
  os_compute_api:os-flavor-manage and action(s) are missing in the nova
  policy-in-code. Each API should have its own policy action that it
  checks.

  The new policy checks should be added here:
  https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/api/openstack/compute/flavor_manage.py

  Additional policy actions should be added here:
  https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/policies/flavor_manage.py
