Make anaconda non-image deploys sane
Ironic has a lot of logic built up around use of images for filesystems,
however several recent additions, such as the ``ramdisk`` and ``anaconda``
deployment interfaces have started to break this mold.
In working with some operators attempting to utilzie the anaconda
deployment interface outside the context of full OpenStack, we discovered
some issues which needed to be make simpler to help remove the need to
route around data validation checks for things that are not required.
Standalong users also have the ability to point to a URL with anaconda,
where as Operators using OpenStack can only do so with customized kickstart
files. While this is okay, the disparity in configuraiton checking
was also creating additional issues.
In this, we discovered we were not really graceful with redirects,
so we're now a little more graceful with them.
