Andre Pech ab44545a76 Initial Modular L2 Mechanism Driver implementation.
Define the Mechanism Driver interface for create/update/delete
operations on networks and ports. For each of these event, the
Mechanism Driver provides one method that is called within the
database transaction of the ml2 plugin method, and one that is called
after the transaction is completed.

Support for mechanism drivers is still a work-in-progress, and the
interface is subject to change in future versions before the release
of Havana. However this initial version should be sufficient to enable
others to start defining their own mechanism drivers.

Change-Id: Ife30215589792ee27df9897d3b2bc04392638266
Implements: blueprint ml2-mechanism-drivers
Fixes: bug #1199977
Fixes: bug #1199978

ML2 type drivers each support a specific network_type for provider

Network segments are represented by segment dictionaries using the

A mechanism driver is called on the creation, update, and deletion

_precommit), one right afterwards (method suffix of _postcommit).
Exceptions raised by methods called inside the transaction can
rollback, but should not make any blocking calls (for example,
REST requests to an outside controller). Methods called after
transaction commits can make blocking external calls, though these
will block the entire process. Exceptions raised in calls after
the transaction commits may cause the associated resource to be
deleted.
Because rollback outside of the transaction is not done in the
update network/port case, all data validation must be done within
methods that are part of the database transaction.
