It has been asserted that we should not be calling qemu-img info on untrusted files. That means we need to know if they have a backing_file, data_file or other unsafe configuration *before* we use qemu-img to probe or convert them. This grafts glance's format_inspector module into nova/images so we can use it to check the file early for safety. The expectation is that this will be moved to oslo.utils (or something) later and thus we will just delete the file from nova and change our import when that happens. NOTE: This includes whitespace changes from the glance version of format_inspector.py because of autopep8 demands.

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.
