Sam Betts 4af672b849 Add GenericLocalLinkConnectionHook processing hook
For Ironic multi-tenant networking support, we need to be able to
discover the nodes local connectivity. To do this IPA can try to pull
LLDP packets for every NIC.

This patch adds a processing hook to handle the data from these packets
in ironic-inspector so that we can populate the correct fields fields in
Ironic. The generic lldp hook only handles the mandatory fields port id
and chassis id, set on port_id and switch_id in local_link_connection.

Further LLDP fields should be handled by additional vendor specific LLDP
processing hooks, that populate the switch_info field in a non-generic
way.
