Deprecate AMI image formats

Browse Source 
We have a lot of special cases all around our code for AMI (et al)
images, in the boot, snapshot, and other areas. It was recently
discussed (after the major CVE which was complicated by AMI support)
that we should drop these special cases and support for AMI with it.
This starts that timer.

deprecations:
- |
AMI, AKI, and ARI image formats are now deprecated in Nova. The special-
case handling for them will be removed in a future release, and Nova will
stop being able to boot from them at that time. The kernel-id and
ramdisk-id linkages will continue to be honored from base images and are
unaffecfted by this deprecation.
