Code Issues Proposed changes

Reword interface information in multitenancy docs 

There has been some confusion about the difference between the flat and
neutron network interfaces. This patch aims to improve the descriptions
of those interfaces to explain the differences and behaviours better.

- ``noop`` interface is used for standalone deployments, and does not perform
any network switching;
- ``flat`` interface places all provisioned nodes and nodes being deployed into
a single layer 2 network, separated from the cleaning network;
- ``flat`` interface places all nodes into a single provider network that is
pre-configured on the Networking service and physical equipment. Nodes remain
physically connected to this network during their entire life cycle.
- ``neutron`` interface provides tenant-defined networking by integrating with
the Networking service, while also separating tenant networks from the
provisioning and cleaning provider networks.
- ``neutron`` interface provides tenant-defined networking through the
Networking service, separating tenant networks from each other and from the
provisioning and cleaning provider networks. Nodes will move between these
networks during their life cycle. This interface requires Networking service
support for the switches attached to the baremetal servers so they can be
programmed.
