[Chad Smith <chad.smith@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The proposal to merge ~chad.smith/cloud-init:feature/maintain-network-on-boot into cloud-init:master has been updated.

Commit message changed to:

update_metadata: a datasource can support network re-config every boot

Very basic type definitions are now defined to distinguish 'boot'
events from 'new instance (first boot)'. Event types will now be handed
to a datasource.update_metadata method which can determine whether
to refresh its metadata and re-render configuration based on that
source event.

A datasource can 'subscribe' to an event by setting up the update_events
attribute on the datasource class which describe what config scope is
updated by a list of matching events. By default datasources will have
the following update_events: {'network': [EventType.BOOT_NEW_INSTANCE]}
This setting says the datasource will re-write network configuration only
on first boot of a new instance or when the instance id changes.
