    CLOUDSTACK-1667: Make a better description of the extractable flag

    The extractable flag is a bit confusing, as it is easy to imply some sort of extraction (zip, bzip2, gzip etc.) support, while it actually refers to permission to extract (or download) the ISO/template from the system.
    
    This is a simple fix to give it a bit more meaning, until someone can come up with a better explanation of the feature.

> The explanation of "Extractable" when registering an ISO is not helpful. Please expand on what it means and when it should be checked.
> This is currently what's in the admin guide:
> "Extractable: Choose Yes if the ISO should be available for extraction."
