Title:
  [SRU][FFe] CloudSigma Datasource doesn't handle vendor-data correctly

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

Bug description:
  SRU Justificaton:
  This SRU fulfills the FFE exception granted.

  
  Cloud Sigma has asked that we update the DataSource in Cloud-init to support the 14.04 VendorData construct. The regression potential for this change is low, as only the cloud-init Cloud-Sigma datasource is changed, a test suite has been provided and it has been tested by Cloud Sigma.

  The reason for this late-in-the-cylce change is so that Cloud Sigma
  can have use the official Ubuntu Images with out conflating user and
  vendor-data. Currently Cloud Sigma uses the user-data channel
  improperly for transmitting vendor specific information to Cloud-init,
  when they should be using the vendor-data channel. By switching to the
  proper channel for vendor specific information, user-data and vendor-
  data will not be mangled, preventing collisions of user-data and
  vendor-specific data.

  [ORIGINAL BUG REPORT]
  It appears as the CloudSigma datasource only has support for 'user-data', and not 'vendor-data.'
