Alex Sirbu has proposed merging
lp:~alexandru-sirbu/cloud-init/hashed-password-change into lp:cloud-init.
Requested reviews:
cloud init development team (cloud-init-dev)
For more details, see:

There was no way to change the password of an already existing user, by
providing the new hashed password as an input.
The function def set_passwd(self, user, passwd, hashed=False): from the
distros/__init__.py file already has the possibility of changing the password
by giving it a hashed string, but this functionality wasn't used anywhere. By
adding a new argument, hashed_passwd, to be used in the create_user function in
a similar way to the plain_text_passwd, and by using the before mentioned
function with the hashed paremeter set to True, the goal of changing the
password with a hashed string is met.
