Don't log sensitive auth data
Add the ability to turn off logging from the session object and then
handle logging of auth requests within their own sections. This is a
very simplistic ability to completely disable logging. Logging more
filtered debugging can be added later.
This new ability is utilized in this patch to prevent logging of
requests that include passwords. This covers authenticate, password
change, and user update requests that include passwords.

Bug description:
When the log level is set to DEBUG, keystoneclient's full-request
logging mechanism kicks in, exposing plaintext passwords, etc.
This bug is mostly out of the scope of Horizon, however Horizon can
also be more secure in this regard. We should make sure that wherever
we *are* handling sensitive data we use Django's error report
filtering mechanisms so they don't appear in tracebacks, etc.
(https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/error-reporting
/#filtering-error-reports)
Keystone may also want to look at respecting such annotations in their
logging mechanism, i.e. if Django were properly annotating these data
objects, keystoneclient could check for those annotations and properly
sanitize the log output.
If not this exact mechanism, then something similar would be wise.
For the time being, it's also worth documenting in both projects that
a log level of DEBUG will log passwords in plain text.
