    Don't return the sensitive information to user
    
    We return back the sensitive information to user
    when some exceptions happened, for example,
    when DBError happened, we return the whole sql
    statement to user, it's not safe.
    This patch changes to return the message if the
    exception is the HeatException, otherwise the message
    won't be revealed to user.

Title:
  Don't return back the sensitive information to user

Status in OpenStack Heat:
  Fix Released
Status in OpenStack Security Advisory:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  We return back the sensitive information to user when some exception happen, for example, when DBError happened, we will return the whole sql statement to user, it's not safe, also we return the traceback to user, it's not necessary.
  Maybe we can do the same thing like nova and cinder to add an attribute 'safe' for some exceptions to decide whether to return the information like the error message details to user.
