Fix duplicate append of Image.Status fields

Add back the content version check and Disks not empty hack. This will
prevent duplicate CL task from being created when the CL item has not
changed.

Clear arrays in the Image Status before updating them. This bug had been
mostly masked by the short circuit check above but without clearing it
the duplicate appends would eventually cause the object to exceed the
allowed limit.
