Added feature to build using an Existing available EIP (Elastic IP) #125

Added the possibility to create an image build using an existing available EIP instead of allocating a new one.

Why this feature: Currently it's possible to build using existing network infrastructure such as VPC and Vswitch and security groups, we are using this - yet we are also using Cloud firewall and here we need some custom rules for image build VM's to work. By having a pool of Known before IP addresses we can apply the firewall rules to them, then we just need to use any available EIP from that pool during the build process.
