Return X-Storage-Url in passive mode
When auth_mode is set to 'passive', client can authenticate itself using account, user and key. This enables swiftkerbauth to return X-Storage-Url response header to client. X-Storage-Url contains account name provided in the request. This required a change in X-Storage-User header format from X-Storage-User: user to X-Storage-User: account:user This makes swiftkerbauth(passive mode) handle_get_token APIs to be more consistent with that of swauth and tempauth.
