Deploying whole disk image with local boot fails

[Lucas Alvares Gomes]

When using the DIB ramdisk to deploy a whole disk image + local boot the deployment will fail because right now the DIB ramdisk will always try to install the bootloader onto the image if the local boot is set. For full disk images the images already contains a bootloader so if local boot is set we need to skip the bootloader installation.

For that we need:

1) Ironic to inform the deploy ramdisk that it's a whole disk image (via kernel cmdline probably)

2) Make the ramdisk skip the bootlader installation if whole disk image is set

    Don't pass boot_option: local for whole disk images

    This fixes an issue where DIB installs a bootloader on top of the disk
    image's bootloader. For now, hack boot_option to show as netboot for
    whole disk images (from DIB's perspective), and fix it for real in
    Liberty.
