Add support for sysprep-parameters

The user may define parameters needed by the os_type classes to perform
the system preparation tasks.

A new needed_sysprep_params method is added to os_type.OSBase that
returns a list with parameters that should be defined by the user.

Remove all referencies to words like ~okeanos

In the documentation and the printed messages, remove all references
to ~okeanos, pithos or cyclades.

Add --cloud option in snf-image-creator

This options can be used to get the authentication URL and token
from a saved cloud section in the kamaki configuration file

Code Cleanup

• Prefix all private methods with _
• Write missing docstrings
• Move all public methods above the private ones
• Add module docstrings where missing
• Define source code encodings on all modules

Share the md5sum and meta file if image is public

If the image gets registered as public allow anyone to read the
metadata and the md5sum file.

Fix an some error messages in snf-image-creator

Rename DiskDevice class to Image

Rename DiskDevice class to Image and move it to a seperate module.
Also, don't let the user access the os_type/* modules directly. In
Image class create the `os' member variable that will host an
appropriate instance of one of the OSBase classes.

Don't check the token if -t is not defined

Support private images

Support images that can only be deployed by the user that registers
the image to cyclades

Use only the token to authenticate to synnefo

You don't need the account name. You can fetch it from astakos using
the authentication token.

Minor fixes in output messages

Monkey patch the source to work with gevent

Needed by new kamaki, otherwise it throughs an exception at the end.

Mount the media ro if --print-sysprep is specified

Remove the image size from the image metadata

Fix pep8 errors

Fixed many `E127 continuation line over-indented for visual indent'
errors

Open snapshot in binary mode before uploading

Don't handle kamaki exceptions in kamaki_wrapper

Let the application decide what to do with them. If image-creator
receives an error from kamaki it will terminate. But this may not be
the proper thing to do for an interactive application like
image-creator-dialog

Create a new output subpackage

Check if stdout is a tty

If not then don't output progressbars and colors

Remove get_metadata() from os_type classes

The metadata are collected in the constructor and are saved in the
meta variable. This way they can be accessed and altered by the
sysprep methods. There are cases where some metadata are not valid
and need to be updated after a sysprep action is performed. For...

Remove the swap partition when shrinking

If the swap partition is the last partition in the media, then it can
be safely removed. The image-creator will save enough info in the
SWAP metadata to recreate it.

Cleanup code in disk module

Minor cleanup (typos, comments, etc)

Use progress for progress bar & implement register

Seperate snapshoting from get_device in Disk class

Make -u and -r input options require an argument

Add options for printing sysprep and data cleanup

Add --print-data-cleanup and --print sysprep input options. If enabled
the program will output what data cleanup and syspep operations will
and won't run a a selected input media

Capitalize all image metadata keys

Move image_extract method into DiskDevice

Beautify program's output.

Create an exception based error reporting system

All modules should use image_creator.FatalError exception to report
fatal errors.

Remove python-losetup dependency

The package is buggy and we can use pbs to do the same thing.

Add input options and populate image metadata

Hooray! This is the first release that actually works!

Major code revision

• Add foreach_file function in OSBase. This is used by all cleanup
  methods
• Add slackware class. This class derives from linux and overwrites the
  log cleanup behaviour. This is needed since slackware stores all
  package management info in /var/log/packages...

Add OS specific classes
