A bug was introduced which meant that the server SSL certificate was
not being verified. Here we make sure that it is checked (unless
the --insecure flag is used).
Helps guard against man-in-the-middle attack.

Currently the glance client can't operate on IPv6 address based
openstack controller IPs. The reason for this is the absence of
creation of a IPv6 socket in the glance client code (in https.py).
The glance client is trying to create sockets from the AF_INET
socket family but this will lead to errors when glance client makes
a call on the IPv6 IP addresses.
In order to fix this limitation, we ensure that if the hostname
resolves to IPv6 or an explicit IPv6 address is used to configure
the openstack controller - glance client shall be able to detect
that and then create a AF_INET6 socket family. In all other cases
a AF_INET socket is created. We default to IPv4 sockets in all
other cases.

This review implements blueprint python-request and replaces the old
http client implementation in favor of a new one based on
python-requests.
Major changes:
* raw_request and json_request removed since everything is now being
handled by the same method "_request"
* New methods that match HTTP's methods were added:
- get
- put
- post
- head
- patch
- delete
* Content-Type is now being "inferred" based on the data being sent:
- if it is file-like object it chunks the request
- if it is a python type not instance of basestring then it'll try
to serialize it to json
- Every other case will keep the incoming content-type and will send
the data as is.
* Glanceclient's HTTPSConnection implementation will be used if
no-compression flag is set to True.
