Public bug reported:

We're relying on existing uid 65534 to run functional tests [0] and if it doesn't exist,
metadata proxy will fail to spawn [1] and so will the tests.

>From what I've seen in centos7, user with uid 65534 exists when
deploying devstack because libvirt package is installed and nfs-utils is
a dependency. nfs-utils will create nfsnobody user under this uid [2]
and the functional tests pass.

We shouldn't rely on this uid to be present on the system. I'll try to
come up with something to fix the tests but feedback is very welcome :)
