Cross-platform instance initialization

Alessandro Pilotti b5a7fc38aa Resets service user password at each execution In a cloud environment instance images are typically cloned. This implies that the credentials used by the Cloudbase-Init service, even if randomly generated, are identical across instances of the same image, unless replaced during boot, e.g. by the post-sysprep specialize actions. Since this cannot be controlled in cases in which sysprep or similar mechanisms are not used (e.g. a Nova image snapshot), this patch adds a mechanism to reset the Cloudbase-Init service password at each execution. This avoids potential "pass the hash" type of attacks executed from user-data across instances booted from the same image.
