upgrade:
- Default RBAC policy for lock operations has been modified to
admin_or_owner for the stable V2.0 API. Please understand to modify the
policy if you still keep to have anyone to lock an instance and you're
still using the stable API endpoint.

other:
- The sample policy file shipped with Nova contained many policies set to
""(allow all) which was not the proper default for many of those checks. It
was also a source of confusion as some people thought "" meant to use the
default rule. These empty policies have been updated to be explicit in all
cases.
Many of them were changed to match the default rule of "admin_or_owner"
which is a more restrictive policy check but does not change the
restrictiveness of the API calls overall because there are similar checks
in the database already.
This does not affect any existing deployment, just the sample file included
for use by new deployments.
