qemu fails when booting an instance with the os_command_line on non ami
images

-append only allowed with -kernel option

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is this the correct behaviour or should the instance be booted with a
log warning that the os_command_line isn't considered since it only
applies to ami images in qemu?

The easiest and least painful solution I could think of is to move the
code in the kernel_id check, but I don't know how that would affect
other hypervisors. Any comments by people with greater experience with
the other hypervisors are more than welcome.
