LIBCLOUD-367: improve feature metadata
This pull request updates the metadata of ``self.features['create_node']``.
It refactors ``deploy_node`` to not care about the metadata when
authentication information is provided, this means EC2 and other users of
deploy_node can continue to function even though they don't really support the
NodeAuthSSHKey interface.
It turns out that ``deploy_node`` will generate a password for drivers that
support ``password`` if auth is not provided. In order to not break that i've
had to move the feature into the ``create_node`` implementations. So now any
driver that supports ``password`` will behave like ``generates_password`` if no
auth information is provided.
It adds a generic helper for making sure the right kind of NodeAuth object
has been pased to ``create_node``.
The PR also contains a few minor PEP8 cleanups in files i've touched.
