How to use LXC local image for new machine

[fengxia]

Hi Juju,

I'm using `localhost` provider for dev test. I have create a LXD 
controller, and each time `juju deploy` will create a new container 
(series/trusty).

I'm experimenting to use a local image so `juju deploy` can use. So far:

1. Created an image, "gold-copy"

2. `lxc image alias create trusty [hash]`, also created alias 
`ubuntu-trusty`

But no avail. Juju will continue to download a `ubuntu-trusty` image to 
use.

Any advice here?

btw, the ultimate goal is to shorten the cycle of getting a new machine. 
The thought is to provide a customized image that has packages 
pre-loaded, eg python, python-dev, and a few charm libs.

I also read somewhere about juju using `clone-image`? Any detail on this 
function?
