5.1.0 policy-handler - policy-updates from new PDP5.1.0

DCAEGEN2-1851: - policy-handler now supports the policy-update notification from the new policy-engine thru DMaaP MR = no policy-filters - only policy-id values - see README for discoverable config settings of dmaap_mr client = DMaaP MR client has the same flexibility as policy_engine = set the query.timeout to high value like 15000 (default) - requests to DMaaP MR go through a single blocking connection - first catch-up only after draining the policy-updates from DMaaP MR on the first loop - safe parsing of messages from DMaaP MR - policy-engine changed the data type for policy-version field from int to string that is expected to have the semver value - related change to deployment-handler (DCAEGEN2-2085) has to be deployed to handle the non-numeric policyVersion - on new PDP API: http /policy_latest and policy-updates return the new data from the new PDP API with the following fields added/renamed by the policy-handler to keep other policy related parts intact in R4-R6 (see pdp_api/policy_utils.py) * policyName = policy_id + "." + policyVersion.replace(".","-") + ".xml" * policyVersion = str(metadata["policy-version"]) * "config" - is the renamed "properties" from the new PDP API response - enabled the /catch_up and the periodic auto-catch-up for the new PDP API - enabled GET /policies_latest - returns the latest policies for the deployed components - POST /policies_latest - still disabled since no support for the policy-filters is provided for the new PDP API - fixed hiding the Authorization value on comparing the configs - logging of secrets is now sha256 to see whether they changed - added X-ONAP-RequestID to headers the same way as X-ECOMP-RequestID - on policy-update process the removal first, then addition - changed the pool_connections=1 (number of pools) on PDP and DH sides == only a single destination is expected for each - log the exception as fatal into error.log - other minor fixes and refactoring - unit-test coverage 74% - integration testing is requested DCAEGEN2-1976: - policy-handler is enhanced to get user/password from env vars for PDP and DMaaP MR clients and overwriting the Authorization field in https headers received from the discoverable config = to override the Authorization value on policy_engine, set the environment vars $PDP_USER and $PDP_PWD in policy-handler container = to override the Authorization value on dmaap_mr, if using https and user-password authentication, set the environment vars $DMAAP_MR_USER and $DMAAP_MR_PWD in policy-handler container Change-Id: Iad8eab9e20e615a0e0d2822f4735dc64c50aa55c Signed-off-by: Alex Shatov <alexs@att.com> Issue-ID: DCAEGEN2-1851 Issue-ID: DCAEGEN2-1976
