Title:
  set_admin_password in the libvirt driver does not save the password in
  system metadata

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  In Progress
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova) pike series:
  Confirmed
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova) queens series:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  We have an API for setting the admin password for an already created
  instance and we have a metadata API for retrieving the encrypted
  password. In the libvirt driver, when a request to set the admin
  password is received, it is indeed set in the guest but the instance
  system metadata is never updated with the encrypted password, so
  attempts to retrieve the password via the metadata service API result
  in an empty string returned instead of the encrypted password.
