Title:
  Enable admin password complexity verification

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Expired
Status in OpenStack Security Advisory:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  When performing actions such as create instances, evacuate instances,
  rebuild instances, rescue instances and update instances' admin
  password. The complexity of user provided admin password has not been
  verified. This can cause security problems.

  One solution will be adding a configuration option:
  using_complex_admin_password = True, if this option is set in
  configure file by administrator, then Nova will perform password
  complexity checks, the check standards can be set to following the IT
  industry general standard, if the provided admin password is not
  complex enough, an exception will be throw. If this option is not set
  in configure file, then the complexity check will be skipped.
