Public bug reported:

When using ImagePropertiesFilter for something like hardware
architecture, it can cause very unpredictable behaviour because of the
lack of default value.

In our case, a public cloud user will most likely upload an image
without `hw_architecture` defined anywhere (as most instruction and
general OpenStack documentation refers to).

However, in a case where there are multiple architectures available, the
images tagged with a specific architecture will go towards hypervisors
with that specific architecture.  However, those which are not tagged
will go to *any* hypervisor.

Because of how popular certain architectures are, it should be possible
to be able to set a 'default' value for the architecture as it is the
implied one, with the ability to override it if a user wants a specific
one.
