Public bug reported:

The EC2 API specification states that the DescribeImagesResponse should
contain a field called imageType (taking the values machine, kernel, or
ramdisk).

http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AWSEC2/latest/APIReference
/ApiReference-query-DescribeImages.html

Nova returns this field, but calls it "type" not "imageType".

euca-describe-images parses the field "type", but it looks like they
also acknowledge that this is out of spec.  From euca2ools/__init__.py:

        #type
        #TODO: fixme
        image_type_elem = doc.createElement("type")

We should return the correct value, and also include the old name, for
compatibility with euca2ools.
