Stephen Finucane 310736b576 Standardize README 
I had trouble finding the hosted docs for os-vif, which means others are
likely to too. Use the oslo-style README and refer people to other
resources.

vif_types host_info usage plugins/ovs plugins/linux-bridge glossary

os-vif is a library for plugging and unplugging virtual interfaces (VIFs) in OpenStack. It provides:

  • Versioned objects that represent various types of virtual interfaces and their components
  • Base VIF plugin class that supplies a plug() and unplug() interface
  • Plugins for two networking backends - Open vSwitch and Linux Bridge

os-vif is intended to define a common model for representing VIF types in OpenStack. With the exception of the two included plugins, all plugins for other networking backends are maintained in separate code repositories.
