[one-users] request implemented, but do not know how to use it.

[Ruben S. Montero]

Hi,

This is now implemented in master. I think it can be applied to the 3.8
branch as is (let me know if there is any problem). The new feature will
let you:

* Specify the PERSISTENT_TYPE in an image template. If an image has
PERSISTENT_TYPE="IMMUTABLE" in its template it will be treated as a
persistent image but as it will be immutable it has READONLY="YES" (exposed
as ro by the hypervisor) and SAVE="NO" (no move back operations will be
performed)

* READONLY flag can be set per DISK or IMAGE.

To try the suggested scenario, just set the image persistent and set it to
immutable.

Cheers

Ruben
