Title:
  base64 user-data broken in OVF datasource

Status in cloud-init:
  Fix Released
Status in cloud-init package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in cloud-init source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  ==== Begin SRU Template ====
  [Impact] 
  Users of the OVF datasource can not provide user-data that is base64 encoded.

  [Test Case]
  $ rel=xenial
  $ burl="http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/daily/server/$rel/current/";
  $ disk="$rel-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.img"
  $ wget "$burl/$disk" -O "$disk"

  # prepare the ovftransport.iso
  $ git clone http://git.launchpad.net/cloud-init
  $ ( cd cloud-init/doc/sources/ovf && ./make-iso ovf-env.xml.tmpl user-data --output - ) > ovftransport.iso

  # create a temp disk for patching and patch in -proposed
  $ qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b "$disk" disk.img
  $ sudo mount-image-callback --system-resolvconf disk.img -- chroot _MOUNTPOINT_ \
      sh -c 'l=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/proposed.list;
         echo deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial-proposed main > "$l" &&
         apt-get -q update && apt-get install -qy cloud-init'

  $ qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm \
     -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=net00 -netdev type=user,id=net00  \
     -hda disk.img -cdrom ovftransport.iso -m 512 -curses -snapshot

  # you will see an 'ovfdemo' login prompt, log in as root:passw0rd
  # verify it worked by cat /var/lib/cloud/instance/user-data.txt

  [Regression Potential] 
  very low chance for regression, a guest with user-data would be broken previously.

  ==== End SRU Template ====

  
  I am using cloudint 0.7.7~bzr1256-0ubuntu1~16.04.1 on Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS.

  When I pass yaml-formatted user-data  over the OVF datasource over the
  ISO transport the yaml string fails to be parsed.

  I tracked this to minidom's inability to handle newlines in an
  attribute. The xml bellow works for coreos but breaks under cloud-
  init:

  <PropertySection>
           <Property oe:key="user-data" oe:value="#cloud-config
  ---
  users:
    - name: "test"
      passwd: "$1$NVdKo9MI$PlHasfYsufCHbP1Hh9TMz/"
      groups:
        - "sudo"
  "/>
  </PropertySection>

  If I use base64-encoded user-data I get this error:

    Sep 01 12:07:43 sof2-lab3-dhcp371 cloud-init[3248]: 2016-09-01 12:07:43,854 - __init__.py[WARNING]: Unhandled non-multipart (text/x-not-multipart) userdata: 'b'I2Nsb3VkLWNvbmZpZwotLS0K'...'
    Sep 01 12:07:43 sof2-lab3-dhcp371 cloud-init[3248]: [CLOUDINIT] __init__.py[WARNING]: Unhandled non-multipart (text/x-not-multipart) userdata: 'b'I2Nsb3VkLWNvbmZpZwotLS0K'...'

  Is there a way to pass user-data as a single-line string that doesn't
  confuse minidom?
