Cannot configure keystone token flush cron job to run more than once per day

[Juan Antonio Osorio Robles]

The keystone token crontab is configured in t-h-t via the following parameters:

  KeystoneCronTokenFlushMinute:
    type: string
    description: >
        Cron to purge expired tokens - Minute
    default: '1'
  KeystoneCronTokenFlushHour:
    type: string
    description: >
        Cron to purge expired tokens - Hour
    default: '0'
  KeystoneCronTokenFlushMonthday:
    type: string
    description: >
        Cron to purge expired tokens - Month Day
    default: '*'
  KeystoneCronTokenFlushMonth:
    type: string
    description: >
        Cron to purge expired tokens - Month
    default: '*'
  KeystoneCronTokenFlushWeekday:
    type: string
    description: >
        Cron to purge expired tokens - Week Day
    default: '*'

This doesn't allow us to set the KeystoneCronTokenFlushHour to run more than once per day, since it's a type string. We need to change the value it takes in order to allow it to run more times per day.

    Use comma_delimited_list for token flush cron time settings

    This allows us to better configure these parametes, e.g. we could set
    the cron job to run more times per day, and not just one.
