Flaper Fesp 30efa29251 Implement small http client for tests

Instead of an HTTP module, use an http client that can be instantiated
once per test and uses requests' sessions. This reduces the code needed
for tests and centralizes the serialization process.

Implements blueprint: refactor-system-tests

Marconi Functional Tests ====================

Marconi's functional tests treat Marconi as a black box. In other words, the API calls attempt to simulate an actual user. Unlike unit tests, the functional tests do not use mockendpoints.

Running functional tests (With Tox)

Setup a Marconi server. Refer to the Marconi README on how to run Marconi locally, or simply use an existing server.
Change $MARCONI_TESTS_CONFIGS_DIR/functional-tests.conf and set run_tests to True.
Run tests. :
```
$ tox
```

Filter tests. :

$ tox -- --tests tests.functional.test_messages

Run tests for specific environments. :
```
$ tox -epy27,pep8
```

Running the Functional Tests (Without Tox)

Setup a Marconi server. Refer to the Marconi README on how to run Marconi locally, or simply use an existing server.

Install functional tests dependencies. :

pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -r test-requirements.txt

cd to the marconi/tests/functional directory
Copy marconi/tests/etc/functional-tests.conf-sample to one of the following locations:
```
~/.marconi/functional-tests.conf
/etc/marconi/functional-tests.conf
```
Update the config file to point to the Marconi server you want to run the tests against
If leaving keystone auth enabled, update system-tests.conf with a valid set of credentials.
Now, to run the sytem tests, simply use the nosetests commands, e.g.:
Run all test suites: :
```
nosetests --tests tests.functional -v
```

Adding New Tests

Add test case to an appropriate test case file: :

queue/test_queue.py
messages/test_messages.py
claim/test_claims.py
