Narrow expected responses for CheckUserInGroup

When checking whether a given user is in a given group, keystone will
return a 404 Not Found if all went well but the user was not in the
group. It may also return a 403 if the user and the group are in
different backends, which would also mean that the user was not in the
group[1]. Any other 400 response is a client error and any 500 response
is a server error to which the user should be alerted.

Without this patch, openstackclient treats any exception as a valid "not
found" and may end up hiding server errors. This patch reduces the
caught exceptions to 403 and 404 responses and treats everything else as
an error.
