Define policies for accessing Watcher components

Registered by Antoine Cabot

Each OpenStack service, Identity, Compute, Networking and so on, has its own role-based access policies. They determine which user can access which objects in which way, and are defined in the service's policy.json file. The policy rule determines under which circumstances the API call is permitted. So, a cloud admin should be able to customize access rights on Watcher API.
