Title:
  rstrip() strips characters not strings

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  In nova/virt/powervm/blockdev.py:_copy_image_file, it uses rstrip() in
  an attempt to strip off a trailing file extension (".gz").

  However, rstrip() works on characters and not strings. As a result,
  rstrip() could strip too many characters off.

  Example:

  >>> "foobaz.gz".rstrip(".gz")
  'fooba'
