Bug description:
  === Begin cloud-init SRU Template ===
  [Impact]
  nova-lxd can provide data to instances in 2 ways:
   a.) metadata service
   b.) config drive

  The support for reading the config drive in cloud-init was never
  functional.  Nova-lxd has changed the way they're presenting the config
  drive to the guest.  Now they are doing so by populating a directory in
  the container /config-drive with the information.
  The change added to cloud-init was to extend support read config drive
  information from that directory.

  [Test Case]
  With a nova-lxd that contains the fix this can be fully tested
  by launching an instance with updated cloud-init and config drive
  attached.

  For cloud-init, the easiest way to demonstrate this is to
  create a lxc container and populate it with a '/config-drive'.

  lxc-proposed-snapshot is
    https://git.launchpad.net/~smoser/cloud-init/+git/sru-info/tree/bin/lxc-proposed-snapshot
  It publishes an image to lxd with proposed enabled and cloud-init upgraded.

  $ release=xenial
  $ ref=xenial-proposed
  $ name=$release-lp1673411
  $ lxc-proposed-snapshot --proposed --publish $release $ref
  $ lxc init $ref $name

  # lxc will create the 'NoCloud' seed, and the normal search
  # path looks there first, so remove it.

  $ lxc file pull $name/etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/90_dpkg.cfg - |
      sed 's/NoCloud, //' |
      lxc file push - $name/etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/90_dpkg.cfg

  ## populate a /config-drive with attached 'make-config-drive-dir'
  ## and push it to the container

  $ d=$(mktemp -d)
  $ make-config-drive-dir "$d" "$name"
  $ rm -Rf "$d"

  ## start it and look around
  $ lxc start $name
  $ sleep 10
  $ lxc exec $name cat /run/cloud-init/result.json
  {
   "v1": {
    "datasource": "DataSourceConfigDrive [net,ver=2][source=/config-drive]",
    "errors": []
   }
  }

  [Regression Potential]
  There is a potentiali false positive where a user had data in
  /config-drive and now that information is read as config drive data.

  That would require a directory tree like:
    /config-drive/openstack/2???-??-??/meta_data.json
  or
    /config-drive/openstack/latest/meta_data.json

  Which seems like a small likelyhood of non-contrived hit.

  [Other Info]
  Upstream commit:
   https://git.launchpad.net/cloud-init/commit/?id=443095f4d4b6fe

  === End cloud-init SRU Template ===

  After reviewing https://review.openstack.org/#/c/445579/ and doing
  some testing, it would appear that the config-drive support in the
  nova-lxd driver is not functional.

  cloud-init ignores the data presented in /var/lib/cloud/data and reads
  from the network accessible metadata-service.

  To test this effectively you have to have a fully offline instance
  (i.e. no metadata service access).
