    Windows instances require the timezone to be "localtime"

    This was relatively simple to fix, assuming that the image used
    to boot the windows instance has the os_type set to "windows".
    The use of os_type in this manner is consistent with the
    existing use in the Xen hypervisor driver.

    DocImpact: if you're booting windows instances, then you need to
    set the os_type image property in glance to "windows". Otherwise
    your instances will have their clock timezone set to UTC, which
    has unexpected side effects in windows.
