All provider specific settings have been moved to the
provider section. The image name itself is now located
at the top level and called "name". It is required for all providers.
This filter is rather aggressive, since it also hooks into the
bootstrapping process itself to prevent debootstrap from unpacking
specific locale files
Although it isn't yet deprecated by the wiki[1], the Debian mirrors HTTP
redirector names itself as `httpredir.debian.org`, even when accessed at
`http.debian.net`.

This change adds a provider option, enhanced_networking,
which installs the Intel virtual networking driver for
SR-IOV using DKMS. It also modifies the EC2 AMI registration
to include support for SR-IOV.
Lines removed: over 500. Readiblity gained: A shitload
Now you can actually get an overview of a manifest on a single screen height.
I am sure that it will also save a lot of hassle when modifying schema in the future.
No more "expected property name" etc. because of an extraneous comma
Comments are of course natively support, so there's no need for this minify_json hokey pokey
Some people want the security team-supported 3.2 kernel, while others
want the better performance of the backports kernel. Both flavors are
currently provided in the Google Compute Engine debian-cloud project.
Also add OpenSSH to the backports flavor, for parity with the current
GCE backports image based on build-debian-cloud. This backport is
included for performance reasons, in line with the purpose of that image
flavor, and as discussed on the debian-cloud list.
S3 images can now be bootstrapped outside EC2.
However, this fix adds the requirement of a "region" setting.
At some point we could make "region" optional and fail when bootstrap-vz
is run outside EC2 and no "region" is set.
* force kpartx to use synchronous mode, removing sleep(10)
* get image configuration, use it during tarball creation and registration
* add (non-working, path problems) image registration
* add cleaning of image from Google keys and repositories
* add NTP server address in manifest
* add preference for backport kernels in manifest
* disable IPv6
* correctly set host name
