Title:
  When booting Instance the hw_video_head property isn't retrieved from
  the image metadata

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When booting Instance the hw_video_head property isn't retrieved from
  the image metadata :

  This functionality of modifying the number of  heads for spice users should have been added  in Ice-House 
  according to BP :
  https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/libvirt-video-driver-selection

  
  I've tested the other video properties (hw_video_model ,  hw_video_ram )   and they seems to work fine ,
  the only problem is  with:  'hw_video_head' . 

  Steps: 
  -----------

  - nova flavor-key m1.small set hw_video:ram_max_mb=128

  - glance image-update rhel64 --property hw_video_model=qxl
  - glance image-update rhel64 --property hw_video_ram=64
  - glance image-update rhel64 --property hw_video_head=2

  
  +----------------------------+--------------------------------------+
  | Property                   | Value                                |
  +----------------------------+--------------------------------------+
  | Property 'hw_video_head'   | 2                                    |
  | Property 'hw_video_model'  | qxl                                |
  | Property 'hw_video_ram'    | 64                                   |

  
  - boot instance from that image ^^

  Look at :
  ---------------
  /var/lib/nova/instances/<Instace ID>/libvirt.xml 

  <video>
        <model type="qxl" vram="64"/>
      </video>
    </devices>
  </domain>

  
  Results: 
  ------------
  - the hw_video_head property isn't retrieved from the image metadata
  - there's no mention of it  in the libvirt.xml
