> Reset "context" attribute on the connection class after the request finished

> Key: LIBCLOUD-457

> Project: Libcloud
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Reporter: Tomaz Muraus
> Assignee: Tomaz Muraus
> Priority: Minor
>
> "context" attribute on the connection class is there to allow developers to
> save temporary data on the connection class for the duration of a request.
> It's commonly used and accessed in places such as "parse_body" and
> "parse_error".
> Because of the oversight, this attribute is currently not reset after the
> request has finished and the value of context is available across multiple
> requests.
> This is bad and in-directly encourages bad practices like persisting some
> state across multiple requests.
> The goal of this issue is to fix that and reset the context after the request
> has finished. We will also need to update the affected code, because sadly,
> some drivers rely on this broken and bad behavior.
