[one-users] Dynamic IP Leases and NIC hotplug on Running VM

[Shankhadeep Shome]

That might break the cloud model. If you have to make such a massive change
in your running vms you might as well create a new template from one
running and add the nic to it and roll it into the current system. You can
always hot plug with extra vms directly from the hosts.
