Title:
  read_dmi_data warning confusing when key not found and no dmidecode

Status in cloud-init:
  Expired

Bug description:
  On systems without dmidecode and where the dmi key is not present,
  cloud-init will print this warning:

  LOG.warning("did not find either path %s or dmidecode command",
                  DMI_SYS_PATH)

  Which looks strange since the system does have /sys/class/dmi/id but
  just did not find the requested key.

  This is due to _read_dmi_syspath returning None and which('dmidecode')
  returning None.

  Ideally we'd indicate that we couldn't read the specified key
  separately from the case where the system doesn't have
  /sys/class/dmi/id.
