Allow identification of OpenStack by Asset Tag
When OpenStack is deployed on some hypervisors (such as VMware vSphere), cloud-init doesn't detect that it needs to probe the metadata service because the DMI product name field can't be set to a field that is recognized by cloud-init. However, the asset tag field can be set via flavor extra specs or image metadata. A similar approach is already used to identify Open Telekom Cloud. This patch allows cloud init to recognize "OpenStack Nova" or "OpenStack Compute" in the asset tag field as an indication that the instance being configured is running on an OpenStack platform.
