Bug Description

Currently Nova is using a krm JSON file to map machine images to kernels and ramdisks.

This relationship can be stored with the image itself by using Glance ImageProperties.

Overall this works by:

* Using glance-upload to create the image with the appropriate ImageProperties

  glance-upload --type=machine --kernel=30 --ramdisk=29 ubuntu-lucid.img mymachine

* Modifying nova to make use of these ImageProperties to fetch the kernel and ramdisk

This bug is dependent on this bug in Glance being fixed: https://bugs.launchpad.net/glance/+bug/706192
