Public bug reported:

In Rocky, we deprecated the nova-consoleauth service, but it's still
being called in the compute/api [1], which requires it to be run
currently despite being deprecated.

In addition to that, today I found that the /os-console-auth-
tokens/{console_token} API [2] assumes the nova-consoleauth backend and
does nothing to handle the database backend. Since the only request
parameter is the auth token, we can't know which cell database the token
auth resides in, so at best we would have to scatter-gather all cells to
get the console connection information to return.
