Fixes bug 1234826 This fix adds a "nexus_l3_enable" configuration boolean for the Cisco Nexus plugin. When this config boolean is set to False (default), then the Nexus switches are only used for L2 switching/segmentation, and layer 3 functionality is deferred to the OVS subplugin / network control node. If this config boolean is set to True, layer 3 functionality, e.g. switch virtual interfaces, are supported on the Nexus switches. (Note that layer 3 functionality is not supported on all versions/models Nexus switches.) Some other things addressed with this fix: - The l3_port_check keyword argument which is optionally passed to the Cisco plugin's delete_port method was not being forwarded on to the OVS (sub) plugin. This keyword argument needs to be forwarded to OVS e.g. when the delete_port is being done in the context of a router interface delete (whereby l3_port_check==False). - UT test cases are added for new "nexus_l3_enable" config, which exercise router interface add/delete. - The Cisco test_network_plugin.py module is refactored/reorganized in order to cleanly add a new router interface test class. - The test_model_update_port_rollback test case was yielding a false positive result (device_owner was not being passed to self.port).
