  nova-lxd uses the Openstack Network metadata service.
  
  In an effort to avoid polling metadata services in cloud-init we will disable
  attempts to reach the MD without positive identification of the cloud.

  inside should have access to an openstack metadata service so we can
  safely assume it will be there.
  
  How can we positively identify that a container is running in nova-lxd?
  Is there anything in the environment (possibly pid 1 environ?) that we
  can look at?

  do.
