admin_token is a string, whatever string you want, that can be used as a 
key to get in before you have real users set up. However because it's a 
string, and because you end up using it from a shell, it is not wise to 
leave this string enabled. Once you've bootstrapped keystone its advised 
to remove admin_token_auth from your paste pipeline and/or remove the 
admin_token definition from your keystone config.

To echo Edgar, but modify slightly, Havana is a dead end and not an 
advisable starting point. Icehouse has a short life ahead of it. Juno is 
the latest release and if you're starting fresh that's the one I would 
recommend you start with. It'll give you the longest time of support 
before you have to contemplate a version upgrade.
