Title:
  Unnecessary dependency on qemu-img by powervm driver

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The nova.virt.powervm.blockdev module makes a call to fetch_to_raw
  which requires qemu-img on the system running compute node. Since
  powervm only supports raw files there is no need to make image
  conversion and therefore depend on qemu-img. Linux on Power RHEL
  distro does not include quemu-img by default so this could be an issue
  that could come up on client shops. To avoid this we can just make a
  call to images.fetch instead of images.fetch_to_raw. I can provide
  this fix if assigned to me.
