Title:
  Virt drivers should use standard image properties

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Expired

Bug description:
  Several virt drivers are using non-standard driver-specific image
  metadata properties. This creates an API contract between the external
  user and the driver implementation. These non-standard ones should be
  marked as deprecated in some way, enforced in v3, etc. We need a
  global whitelist of keys and values that are allowed so that we can
  make sure others don't leak in.

  Examples:

  nova/virt/vmwareapi/vmops.py:            os_type = image_properties.get("vmware_ostype", "otherGuest")
  nova/virt/vmwareapi/vmops.py:            adapter_type = image_properties.get("vmware_adaptertype",
  nova/virt/vmwareapi/vmops.py:            disk_type = image_properties.get("vmware_disktype",
  nova/virt/vmwareapi/vmops.py:            vif_model = image_properties.get("hw_vif_model", "VirtualE1000")

  nova/virt/xenapi/vm_utils.py:    device_id =
  image_properties.get('xenapi_device_id')

  I think it's important to try to get this fixed (or as close as
  possible) before the icehouse release.
