set_hostname: When present in metadata, set it before network bringup.

When instance meta-data provides hostname information, run
cc_set_hostname in the init-local or init-net stage before network
comes up.

Prevent an initial DHCP request which leaks the stock cloud-image default
hostname before the meta-data provided hostname was processed.
A leaked cloud-image hostname adversely affects Dynamic DNS which
would reallocate 'ubuntu' hostname in DNS to every instance brought up by
cloud-init. These instances would only update DNS to the cloud-init
configured hostname upon DHCP lease renewal.

This branch extends the get_hostname methods in datasource, cloud and
util to limit results to metadata_only to avoid extra cost of querying
the distro for hostname information if metadata does not provide that
information.
