As per the community goal of migrating the policy file
the format from JSON to YAML[1], we need to do two things:

1. Change the default value of '[oslo_policy] policy_file''
config option from 'policy.json' to 'policy.yaml' with
upgrade checks.

2. Deprecate the JSON formatted policy file on the project side
via warning in doc and releasenotes.

Also replace policy.json to policy.yaml ref from doc and tests.

Current requirements-check job is failing with
below error:

ERROR: Requirement for package PrettyTable excludes a version not excluded in the global list.
  Local settings : {'<0.8'}
  Global settings: set()
  Unexpected     : set()
Validating test-requirements.txt

Keeping PrettyTable same as what we have in openstack/requirements repo

There is a commonly shared and proven rpc pattern used
across most OpenStack services that is already implemented
in watcher, but the functions are not used.

This patch basically makes use of the existing
rpc classes and removes some unnecessary code.

Lower-constraints is not a requirement of the OpenStack Python PTI
[0] and there currently is a discussion on the mailing list [1]
about dropping the test, with the oslo team already having done
so [2].

The new dependency resolver in pip fails due to incompatible
dependency versions in our lower-constraints file, meaning that
we were never providing any real guarantees with it.

To unblock the CI, I am disabling lower-constraints job for now,
with the option to reenable it in case we fix the constraints,
and based on the outcome of the mailing list discussions and
consensus.

The check for this call to input() has been removed.
The input method in Python 2 will read from standard input, evaluate and
run the resulting string as python source code. This is similar, though
in many ways worse, than using eval. On Python 2, use raw_input instead,
input is safe in Python 3.

instances_no_attached should have self as the first argument, this is
to add it.
