Title:
  Add healthcheck middleware to pipelines

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Opinion

Bug description:
  As an operator, I want to be able to use oslo healthcheck
  middleware[1] to Nova's pipeline so that I can GET the /healthcheck
  URI to determine "up" or not for a given nova-api host. The
  healthcheck middleware allows for manually setting the health status
  to offline, without actually stopping the API service. When I can do
  this, I can easily "take an API node offline" from the aspect of the
  load balancer, which uses the healthcheck path for status checks,
  before stopping the API process itself. This is a quick and generic
  way to prevent new connections to a given API node while restarting it
  as part of a rolling restart.

  This middleware has already been added to glance[2], and I've got an
  open review to add it to keystone as well[3]. My eventual goal is to
  have it in use across all the services that directly listen for client
  connections.
