Title:
  gzipped and base64 encoded user-data leads to failure

Status in cloud-init:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Issue is here as well: https://github.com/terraform-providers
  /terraform-provider-aws/issues/8244

  In /var/log/cloud-init.log this is the only WARNING message (there are
  no ERROR messages):

  2020-06-18 12:16:59,413 - __init__.py[WARNING]: Unhandled non-
  multipart (text/x-not-multipart) userdata:
  'b'H4sIAAAAAAAA/8RV3W4bNxO9'...'

  I can even pull the file from the created VM and it can be extracted
  and shows to be proper formatting and everything:

  curl -L http://169.254.169.254/latest/user-data/ | base64 --decode |
  gunzip

  When I use the exact same userdata as above but extracted and passed
  as plain text it works without issue.
