Filter credentials by user ID

bp filter-credentials-by-user

Enable control of credentials for users via the Identity policy file

Problem Description

Credentials can be created for users and stored in the Identity service, tagged with the appropriate user_id. The Identity service policy engine will already allow a user to have control over their own credentials, for update, get and delete operations. However, in order to get a credential you must know its ID, and the only way to get an ID is to list those credentials tagged with your user_id. The only way to control such listing via policy is via using the policy control of filters - but the list credentials API does not support a filter on user_id.

Proposed Change

Add a filter of user_id to the list credentials API.
