[Bug 1190431] [NEW] config-drive datasource does not provide availability_zone

[Scott Moser]

Public bug reported:

The place this was noticed was in trying to use the
'nova.clouds.archive.ubuntu.com' mirror selection.

Because the config-drive-v2 has a metadata entry of 'availability_zone',
it didn't get found by the availabilty_zone property in
cloudinit/sources/__init__.py

Simple patch is:
