Title:
  user-data on OpenNebula restricted to shell sourceable content

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

Bug description:
  OpenNebula uses a text file with shell variables for storing the
  configuration variables (including user provided data). Some user data
  may not be renderable into this format, so using base64 encoding
  alleviates the problem. This change considers that, by default,
  USERDATA variable contains a base64 encoded string with the user
  provided data. This behavior can be deactivated by defining the
  USERDATA_ENCODING variable to anything different to "base64"
  (similarly to the Azure data source).

  This feature is of special interest for resource providers with rOCCI-
  server front-end as the ones in EGI's Federated Cloud
  (https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/Fedcloud-tf:Main)
