We removed this functionality a while back. Instance parameterization
should be happening via cloud-init, not via file injection, if you're using
code from Havana or trunk.

If you're using the baremetal driver from Grizzly, yes, it's doing file
injection. That early driver didn't support DHCP for the instances, so it
had to inject hostname and network config with static IPs.
