Title:
  Atom links should respect Accept header

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  The atom links have a huge overhead.  In a quick experiment with an
  instance listing, the response doubled in size vs if the atom links
  were not present.  As the atom links seem to carry no extra
  information vs the IDs, they should be optional.

  Further, per the Atom RFC (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4287), the
  correct Content-Type for atom links is application/atom+xml.  As such,
  we should return atom links only if the user sends an Accept header
  including the content type "application/atom+xml" or
  "application/atom+json".

  If the client does not send an atom content type, but instead
  specifies e.g. "Accept: application/json", then we must not return the
  Atom formatted information.
