As I've been working through the resources, I'm finding that a lot are
going to need some serious work. Given we have hundreds, I think it
might be prudent to make this opt-in for now and we can revisit
automatic/opt-out at some future point.
Importability will likely be opt-in it appears so this will match up
with that.
Official OpenStack clients commonly support specifing a client
certificate/key to enable SSL client authentication when communicating
with OpenStack services. This patch enables such feature in Terraform
with new parameters and environment variables:
* 'cert' provider parameter or OS_CERT env variable to specify client
certificate file,
* 'key' provider parameter or OS_KEY env variable to specify client
certificate private key file.
* Add Triton Metadata modification AccTest.
The test starts the basic machine and then adds the metadata field
user_data.
Test fails if the user_data field does not match what we expect
OR it times out.

* Fix the non-convergence of Triton metadata changes
The code waiting for the entire Machine Metadata to "deep equal" the Terraform
metadata modifications. These two sets will only be the same if the user
changes all metadata fields of the resource before calling `apply`.

It can come in handy to be able to mount ISOs programmatically.
For instance if you're developing a custom appliance (that automatically installs itself on the hard drive volume)
that you want to automatically test on every successful build (given the ISO is uploaded to the vmware datastore).
There are probably lots of other reasons for using this functionality.
Originally I used an empty config module. This caused problems since
important provider configurations weren't available. Instead, I now set
it to use the full config. This isn't an issue since the attributes
themselves aren't available to Refresh anyways.
