images list API support regular expression

Registered by boh.ricky

Currently, images list API only support strictly string match query.
For example, images list support query by name, if the name support regular expression match.

Maybe it's more convenient and valuable for the user. Especially for the user uses the glance to store snapshot or instance backup, the image maybe have the similar prefix in the image name.

For example, user has images called "bakcup01", “bakcup02", "backup03" etc...
With regular expression support, user can specify the prefix "bakcup" to query all of them.
