Title:
  Https verification + usage + support

Status in Init scripts for use on cloud images:
  Fix Released
Status in “cloud-init” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Currently we have limited https verification and support.

  The inbuilt urllib2 will try to use it, but no verification occurs
  (and there isn't an easy way to specify a incoming certfile to use).

  The boto library we are calling for metadata also needs to have the
  same params/support to use it (this seems to be solved).

  Some ideas:

  - just the url_helper file + boto that this might affect
  - https://github.com/boto/boto/commit/ad0f4aa82a8f30522b0ce3e40e40f145080bf955
  - https://github.com/boto/boto/blob/develop/boto/https_connection.py might be something we can 'borrow'/use
  - https://github.com/boto/boto/blob/develop/boto/connection.py might in general be useful to use directly as well
