[Matt Riedemann <mriedem.os@xxxxxxxxx>]

Public bug reported:

- [x] This is a doc addition request.

The os_admin_user image property was added to nova in the liberty
release:

https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/nova-
specs/specs/liberty/implemented/libvirt-set-admin-password.html

It's used to specify the admin username in a guest, otherwise nova
defaults to root for linux guests and Administrator for windows guests.
It's used when changing the admin password in the guest.

There is a metadef for the property so we could just use that for the
docs:

https://github.com/openstack/glance/blob/54329c6a21b0d3f845b09e79f710fc795976a175/etc/metadefs
/operating-system.json#L26

Only the libvirt driver in nova currently uses the os_admin_user image
property.
