Limit memory & CPU when running qemu-img info

It was found that a modified or corrupted image file can cause a DoS
on the host when getting image info with qemu-img.

This uses the newer 'prlimit' parameter for oslo.concurrency execute
to set an address space limit of 1GB and CPU time limit of 2 seconds
when running the qemu-img info command.

security:
- The qemu-img tool now has resource limits applied
which prevent it from using more than 1GB of address
space or more than 2 seconds of CPU time. This provides
protection against denial of service attacks from
maliciously crafted or corrupted disk images.
