    [placement] set accept to application/json if accept not set
    
    If an incoming request to placement does not set the accept header
    force it to 'application/json'. This not only ensures that error
    responses are in JSON but also that errors early in the middleware
    stack do not cause a key error (see the #1724065 bug).
    
    This fix is done by checking headers early in the middleware stack
    using the requestlog middleware as a convenient place to do the
    check. This overloads requestlog's purpose, but avoids adding yet
    more middleware (doing so has some small impact per request).
    
    Fixing bug 1724065 fixes a 500. Fixing bug 1674694 changes (for some
    requests) the content type of the bodies of 400-499 responses. This
    creates a bit of quandry for microversion handling. If a microversion
    is considered required here then it's not clear the global fix is
    worth doing and the 500 fix should be limited the microversion
    middleware. The intent all along has been that responses should
    strive to align with the API-WG errors guideline [1], which assumes
    application/json.

Title:
  Requesting an out of range microversion without an accept header in
  placement results in a KeyError

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  If the placement service (as of microversion 1.10) if you request a
  microversion that is outside the acceptable range of VERSIONS and do
  _not_ include an 'Accept' header in the request, there is a 500 and a
  KeyError while webob tries to look up the Accept header.

  The issue is in FaultWrapper, so the problem can be dealt with
  elsewhere in placement WSGI stack.
