I've uploaded for the SRU team to review but I think this is a tricky
one - the upstream project have changed the defaults for the stable/yoga
branch for oslo.messaging so the broader ecosystem has adopted this
switch but it is a change in behaviour - for any component running under
WSGI heartbeats will stop working until the config value is set to True.

Bug description:
When performing a heartbeat to rabbit (inside a nova-compute process),
there is a greenlet error which causes a hard crash.
I'm not exactly sure what details are relevant, but can provide more
info if there's something that will be useful!
This is on RHEL7 (essentially... somewhat custom image based on it)

oslo.messaging==12.7.1
nova==23.0.2 (packaged locally from stable/wallaby as of July 3, 2021)
```
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Impact]
The Nova default value of heartbeat_in_pthread needs to be False for non-wsgi services otherwise they crash when attempting to send a heartbeat message e.g. in a greenthread like nova-compute. This backports the patch to Jammy/Yoga in Ubuntu.
[Test Plan]
* Deploy Openstack Yoga on Jammy and ensure nova-compute has debug=True
* ensure "oslo_messaging_rabbit.heartbeat_in_pthread = False" by checking latest entry in /var/log/nova/nova-compute.log
* By default a heartbeat is checked 2 times every 60 seconds
* Check /var/log/nova/nova-compute.log and ensure that do not see any "greenlet.error: cannot switch to a different thread" errors
[Regression Potential]
No regressions are expected as a result of this patch.
