Add support for Google Compute Engine Image Families
## Support for Google Compute Engine Image Families
### Description
Google Compute Engine has a new feature that allows one to specify an image
using a "family". This will return the latest, non-deprecated image that has
been created in the given project with that family attribute. This change adds
support for using an image family in create_node and create_volume as well as a
new method ex_get_image_from_family that will return an image resource from a
family name.
