Add VeNCrypt (TLS/x509) Security Proxy Driver
This adds support for using x509/TLS security
between the compute node and websocket proxy when
using websockify to proxy VNC traffic.
In order to use this with x509, an operator would
have to set up client keys and certificates, as
well as CA certificates, and configure libvirt
to pass the appropriate options to QEmu (this
is configured globally for libvirt, not by Nova).
This process is documented on the libvirt
website.
Then, the operator would enable this driver and
set the following options in /etc/nova/nova.conf:
[console_proxy_tls]
client_key = /path/to/client/keyfile
client_cert = /path/to/client/cert.pem
ca_certs = /path/to/ca/cert.pem
