nuageinit script exec fix

nuageinit fails to execute user-data shell scripts on Digital Ocean because
their platform (possibly others?) delivers these files without executable
permissions.

When nuageinit processes a user-data file, it checks if the first line is
"#cloud-config". If not, it attempts to execute the file directly using
os.execute(), which fails with "Permission denied" when the file lacks
executable permissions.

The fix involves detecting #!/bin/sh scripts and executing them through sh
directly. This minimal change allows nuageinit to work with non-executable
shell scripts while maintaining backward compatibility \o/

Tested on Digital Ocean and now the script is now running correctly.
