Bug#841315: cloud-init: Datasource list missing "OpenStack" key

[Mateo Boudet <mateo.boudet@irisa.fr>]

Hi,

Without the "OpenStack" key, most of the instance configuration works 
(using the EC2 key to configure maybe), but some parts are missing, such 
as "Vendordata" which are not passed to the instance.

As far as I know, the "ConfigDrive" is a different way to configure the 
instance.

(Nb: This is using a Mitaka Openstack deployment, it might be different 
with Newton)
