Public bug reported:

When a end user wants to use the self-service feature to changing their
own password it's very common that they go under Identity -> Users and
press the "Change password" button for their own user which does not
work unless they are admin because it calls update_user keystone API.

Instead users should go into [top right dropdown] -> Settings then move
their eyes to the left in the appearing settings menu, click Change
password and perform the password change there which calls the
change_password keystone API.

The "Change password" button should not be shown if the user does not
have access to perform the action, another fix is also changing the link
for the "Change password" button to the change_password API call if the
logged in user is the one the password will be changed for.
