As part of the fix for bug #1789074, we stopped setting the VIF model to virtio for a vif_type of 'direct' or 'direct-physical'. However, if users configured the 'hw_vif_type' image metadata property, the VIF model would be unconditionally set to whatever the user provided. This would result in bug #1789074 recurring. Given that the model attribute is unnecessary for these vNIC types, we can resolve this issue by simply ignoring the image metadata property when configuring such VIFs.
