Title:
  identify openstack kvm platform on arm64

Status in cloud-init:
  Confirmed
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On i386 and amd64, openstack puts 'OpenStack Nova', into the dmi platform
  information.  OpenStack using kvm on arm64, does not identify itself to the
  guest in any way.

  The result is that OpenStack nodes will not attempt to reach the metadata
  service and will be unusable.

  We need two things
   a.) change openstack to provide that information through libvirt on arm.
   b.) fix qemu bug 1662345 that prevents the information from getting to the guest.
