Gregory Haynes dc33f6ddd0 Simple-init should disable cloud-init

======================
cloud-init-datasources
======================

Configures cloud-init to only use an explicit list of data sources.

Cloud-init contains a growing collection of data source modules and most
are enabled by default.  This causes cloud-init to query each data source
on first boot.  This can cause delays or even boot problems depending on your
environment.

Including this element without setting `DIB_CLOUD_INIT_DATASOURCES` will cause
image builds to fail.
