[keystone] Federated users who wish to use CLI

We are using the "access_token_endpoint". The token is retrieved nicely
from the IdP. However, the issue starts on Keystone side and the Apache
HTTPD mod_auth_openidc. The CLI was not ready to deal with it. It is like
Horizon, when we have multiple IdPs. The discovery process happens twice,
once in Horizon and another one in Keystone. We already fixed the Horizon
issue, and now we are working to fix the CLI. We should have something in
the next few days.
