Public bug reported:

cloud-init should be easy to disable.
cloud-init by design does slow down system boot for 2 reasons
a.) by design, to offer users the ability to do things at defined points in boot and block other things
b.) by nature of being python code and loading libraries and just being "one more thing" that occurs in boot.

We should fix performance wherever we can, but shoudl also make it such
that cloud-init can be installed (in an image) and not negatively affect
boot performance if none of its functionality is needed.
