Sometimes the AWS API responds that it can't find a newly created
instance if you poll it too soon after creation. Retry a few times
to be sure it really hasn't been created.
Enabling discards for disk can greatly minimize disk size then user
inside vm use fstrim command or trim/discard unneded blocks.

This adds retry logic to the amazon/chroot builder. The builder
intermittently fails when ec2conn shows the volume in the attached
state but calling Volumes[0].Attachments return an empty array. The
fix adds a retry logic for when Volumes[0].Attachments has len 0 sleep
for 2 seconds and retry up to 30 times.
When the Volumes[0].Attachments is empty I find within 5 seconds the
Volumes[0].Attachments contains the correct value.

This adds two config options that we need in order to successfully build
our Rackspace images.
First, a boolean `rackconnect_wait` option which waits for the
RackConnect metadata to appear.
Second, an `ssh_interface` option, for rackconnect users who have more
prohibitive firewalls on the 'public' interface and want to ensure all
traffic to the server goes over the 'private' one.
Finishes #952.
