[Openstack-security] [Bug 1321080] Re: auth token is exposed in meter http.request

There are 2 copies of the notifier middleware in different places in
Oslo.

The copy in the incubator is used by projects that have not yet updated
to oslo.messaging, such as neutron.

There is also a copy in the PyCADF library, used by projects that have
updated to oslo.messaging, such as ceilometer.

Based on the history here, it looks like both copies have been fixed, so
I think changing the impact description to say "the PyCADF library"
instead of "the Oslo Library" will make it clear which library needs to
be updated.

  auth token is masked in "request.CADF_EVENT:initiator:credential:token": "4724 xxxxxxxx 8478".
  But it is exposed in  "request.HTTP_X_AUTH_TOKEN": "4724d3dd6b984079a58eecf406298478"
