I think we can make a couple of simple enhancements by:

1. only join on security_groups if using nova-network

2. only join on system_metadata if using dynamic vendordata providers

Backporting the system_metadata change would be tricky though since we did use system_metadata to perform an online data migration for at least the instance.flavor information. Having said that, we removed that system_metadata <> flavor migration code in Rocky:

And as that commit message says, you couldn't upgrade to Liberty if you hadn't migrated the flavor data:

So maybe it's OK to at least backport this metadata-api join improvement to at least Pike.
