Nova Support for Glance Image Signing

Registered by Dane Fichter

In order to support Glance's image signing feature, we need to add accompanying functionality to Nova. This will allow Nova to verify signed images before booting and create signed images.

This accompanies the functionality described in the spec here: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/177948/
