Ok, I _finally_ got around to uploading this change. Sorry for the
delay. Its at https://review.openstack.org/#/c/7615/ .

I've dropped the ec2 id replication for now, as it seems like we haven't
come up with a good plan for that yet. I note that the ec2 api spec says
that the id is just a string, so we could just use the uuid here,
although we don't know what tools and scripts that might break.

The next step I think is some sort of configuration language which lets
you filter which images get replicated. I don't think that's too hard to
do, but I haven't had a chance to give it a try yet.

Cheers,
