Enforce SOAP request strict security

Use the glide.soap.strict_security property to enforces web service security.

If the glide.soap.strict_security system property is not set to the recommended value of true, then users do not need a SOAP role to make requests of non-public pages when the high security or web service plugin is installed.

Ensure the property glide.soap.strict_security is set to true.
