Adds non_inheritable_image_properties flag.
Some image-properties should not be inherited from the instance when
taking a snapshot because we want that functionality to only available
for the base-image, not subsequent snapshots.
As an example, we would like 'cache_in_nova' fast-cloning to be
available just for base-images and not customer snapshots created off a
base-image.
This patch adds a new configuration which allows operators to, at
runtime, select which image-properties should not be inherited by newly
created snapshots.
