[Bug 1440265] [NEW] CloudStack sshkey reset

[pdion891]

Public bug reported:

CloudStack provide capability to reset SSH keys for an existing VM with
the API: resetSSHKeyForVirtualMachine [1]

creating an Instance with SSHkey currently work with cloud-init. But,
CloudStack have the capability to reset it, the VM must be shutdown,
sshkey replaced then the vm restart, current cloud-init does not update
the user sshkey using the new one available from the dhcp server.

tested with cloud-init-0.7.7

current method to mitigate this behavior is to use cloudstack scripts
into the /var/lib/cloud/scripts/per-boot/  which does not benefit from
cloud-init configuration capabilities.
