    Move create of ComputeAPI object in websocketproxy

    Currently, we create a compute.rpcapi.ComputeAPI object during
    NovaProxyRequestHandler.__init__ in order to make calls to nova-compute
    for console token authorizations (port validation). This is problematic
    in the event that we receive a TCP RST as it results in constructing a
    ComputeAPI object only to throw it away and a large number of TCP RST
    sent can cause excessive resource consumption.

    This moves the creation of the ComputeAPI object from __init__ to being
    lazily instantiated upon first use by access of a property, thus
    avoiding creation of ComputeAPI objects when we receive TCP RST
    messages.
