feature flag: Policy feature enabled config group
A new configuration group ``[policy_feature_enabled]`` has been added to
Patrole which will be responsible for collecting the feature flags to be
used for newly introduced policies or policies that were changed in a
backwards-incompatible way.
* create_port_fixed_ips_ip_address_policy (Neutron)
* update_port_fixed_ips_ip_address_policy (Neutron)
* limits_extension_used_limits_policy (Cinder)
* volume_extension_volume_actions_attach_policy (Cinder)
* volume_extension_volume_actions_reserve_policy (Cinder)
* volume_extension_volume_actions_unreserve_policy (Cinder)
These feature flags will be supported until Pike release cycle
is EOL.
The motivation behind these feature flags is [0] which adds
Pike/Queens gating to Patrole. However, in Queens, Neutron
and Cinder renamed or removed a few policies in a backwards-
incompatible way. These policies can be reviewed here: [1].
This PS requires another PS [2] in devstack's lib/tempest
because Patrole, being a branchless project and hosting the
Patrole devstack plugin itself, must fall back to Tempest's
devstack script to list out the backwards-incompatible
policies in Pike.
A documentation update will also come in a follow up with
information on these feature flags.
