unit tests failing if no jsonschema available

[Joshua Powers]

With the recent merge of the validation work the unit tests are now failing on the centos 6 and 7 platforms. Here are the test failures:
centos 6: https://paste.ubuntu.com/24749874/
centos 7: https://paste.ubuntu.com/24749876/

Steps to reproduce:
1. lxc launch images:centos/[6|7] c[6|7]
2. lxc exec c[6|7] bash
3. yum install epel-release -y
4. install dependencies
5. git clone https://git.launchpad.net/cloud-init
6. cd cloud-init
7. nosetests tests/unittests

Expected behavior:
Tests pass with no failures

I updated the subject.
The unit tests fail also on ubuntu... in our daily builds.
see

 https://code.launchpad.net/~cloud-init-dev/+recipe/cloud-init-daily-xenial

and
 https://code.launchpad.net/~cloud-init-dev/+recipe/cloud-init-daily-devel

I"m going to fix devel by adding the build dependency.
the others will have to skip as we dont want to add it there.

This bug is believed to be fixed in cloud-init in 17.1. If this is still a problem for you, please make a comment and set the state back to New

Thank you.
