Title:
  Module configuration validation

Status in cloud-init:
  Expired

Bug description:
  It would be nice if modules could say validate the configuration they
  will be pulling from yaml before using it.

  Say a module needs a configuration with an list in it (for whatever
  usage) and strings in that list. It'd be nice to have a pre-module
  stage or have the modules use some external library to validate that
  there expected/desired/known input is correct. This would make it so
  that the yaml that is documented is verified and situations where a
  module expects a list + stirngs in that list but say that list has
  dictionaries (or other types) in it are invalid before the module
  actually runs.

  Right now alot of those kind of checks don't exist (some do though...)
