OpenStack Dynamic pollsters metadata enrichment with other OpenStack API's data
Sometimes we want/need to add/gather extra metadata for the samples being handled by Ceilometer Dynamic pollsters, such as the project name, domain id, domain name, and other metadata that are not always accessible via the OpenStack component where the sample is gathered. For instance, when gathering the status of virtual machines (VMs) from Nova, we only have the tenant_id, which must be used as the project_id. However, for billing and later invoicing one might need/want the project name, domain id, and other metadata that are available in Keystone (and maybe some others that are scattered over other components). To achieve that, one can use the OpenStack metadata enrichment option. This feature is only available to OpenStack pollsters, and can only gather extra metadata from OpenStack APIs. This patch introduces a new option in the OpenStack Dynamic pollsters, that enable operators to enrich sample's metadata with information that can be captured in other OpenStack APIs such as Keystone, Nova, Neutron, and many others.
