This code (or a version of it) is being shared by at least nova and keystonemiddleware and it seems like a good idea to move it to being common shared code (especially due to the importance of getting this code correct). This adds an initial secretutils and adds tests for it. Change-Id: Ia603202a065d5b345608e712f63f7af21fd74dea
