    Pass readonly flag as a string, not a boolean.

    The LXD API requires that data be passed as strings; pass the
    readonly flag for config-drive support as a string to ensure
    it can be parsed by LXD avoiding the following error:

      json: cannot unmarshal bool into Go value of type string
