Bug Description

Calls like this::

    Puppet::Resource.indirection.find("Keystone_user/#{resource_name}")
    Puppet::Resource.indirection.find("Keystone_tenant/#{resource_name}")

will call self.instances in the provider class every time. self.instances will then create new provider objects for each one. Then the find() method will loop through each one to find the matching name, then the list will be discarded. This is extremely inefficient, and will lead to terrible performance if there are thousands of users/tenants.

These calls should be changed to use the openstack provider `request()` method `show` to get the `:id` of the given resource. The only problem here is that we do not yet have a reliable way to map the resource name to the name + domain we need in order to use `show`. This will be solved by https://review.openstack.org/#/c/218059/

    Replace indirection calls

    Indirection calls are replaced with #fetch_project and #fetch_user methods
    using python-openstackclient (OSC).

    Also removes the assumption that if a resource is unique within a domain space
    then the domain doesn't have to be specified.
