[Bug 1717847] [NEW] Policy does not work for trusts

 

Public bug reported:

see: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-
dev/2017-September/122115.html

In short, the trusts APIs handle their policy in code rather than from
the policy file.

This is rather confusing seeing as we have policies for trusts in the policy json file which do nothing:
https://github.com/openstack/keystone/blob/master/etc/policy.v3cloudsample.json#L137-L142

We should set better default policies, and change the code to respect
the policy files rather than handle the policy checking based on
hardcoded values.


This change needs to be handled carefully (and made very obvious in release notes), because anyone using an older policy file once the change to respect the policy file is part of a release, will mean any authed user can list trusts because of the existing (and incorrect) default policy rules.
