As part of the docs migration from openstack-manuals to nova in the pike release we missed the config-drive docs. This change does the following: 1. Imports the config-drive doc into the user guide. 2. Fixes a broken link to the metadata service in the doc. 3. Removes a note about liberty being the current release. 4. Adds a link in the API reference parameters to actually point at the document we have in tree now, which is otherwise not very discoverable as the main index does not link to this page (or the user index for that matter). Partial-Bug: #1714017 Closes-Bug: #1720873 Change-Id: I1d54e1f5a1a94e9821efad99b7fa430bd8fece0a

If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:
