System VM upgrade posibility
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-10262?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16404517#comment-16404517 ]

Hi [~rohit.vavaldas]
To add some colour to this, here is the original brief, from which Daan took the headline feature.
* As a cloud operator, I want to be able to upload and install the system VM templates via a running CloudStack mgmt. server. I do not want to have to 'pre-seed' templates manually. I wish the 'add zone' wizard to take me through the process of specifying the location of the system VM template to install if i don't do it through the API.
* I want a UI and API to upload system VM templates with or without the aid of the SSVM. I wish to be able to specify a ‘custom’ local (file) or remote (url) location of the system VM template or allow CloudStack to download the ‘default’ template for the current hypervisor(s) installed.
* Through the UI and API, I wish to be able to upload a new system VM template (separately from any upgrade).
* I wish to be able to set/select which template(s) to use as system VM templates easily through the UI and API.
This may give you some ideas.

> As a cloud admin I want a single call API to upgrade/upload a new System VM template. The System VM template upgrade procedure is now largely manual and error prone. An one ring to bind them all API call to replace the current template for system VMs would help cloud admins world wide.
