Bug Description
Via the nova compute API I can see it is possible to GET metadata for an instance but it does not seem to be possible to get system_metadata. It is useful to be able to GET the system metadata fro an instance if you want to query the point in time properties that where inherited from an image during the launch.
I noticed in change https:/
I assume something like the below in compute/api.py would be a starting point to expose this.
def get_instance_
"""Get all system metadata associated with an instance."""
return self.db.
Exposing system metadata in the compute API is something we really don't want to do.
