Ability to specify SSL parameters for python-clients used

Registered by Stan Lagun

Heat uses client libraries for of OpenStack services. Those services may be configured to use HTTPS instead of HTTP. So to access them you need to pass SSL-related parameters to client constructor. Currently this is not possible with Heat. The level of SSL support varies from client to client but there is a common set of options that can be possibly be for any given service. I want to have solution that would allow configure each client independently. I also want to have ability to define a shared configuration for all clients so that I wouldn't have to repeat all the settings for each client. Shared config section would act as a fallback if client-specific config section is not found (or setting is missing)
