ec2metadata should not add trailing / to requests

[Scott Moser]

Binary package hint: cloud-utils

$ ec2metadata --local-ipv4
Failure: 500 Internal Server Error

That is verified on 10.04 and 10.10 guests.

The issue is that ec2metadata requests a url like:
http://169.254.169.254/2008-02-01/meta-data/local-ipv4/

eucalyptus does not handle the trailing / as EC2 does.
