* This patch adds the necessary metadata for Nova to provide plugging
for the external Agilio OVS ML2 and OS-VIF plugins.
* A VIF type for Agilio OVS is added: this is used by the external
ML2/mechanism plugin to trigger Nova to call the external OS-VIF
plugin.
* A virtio-forwarder VNIC type is added. This corresponds to a
low-latency vhost-user forwarding process connecting an accelerated
VF to a VM. This VNIC type is not intended to be specific to
Agilio OVS.
* The necessary end-to-end implementation has been verified, with the
external plugin hosted at:
https://github.com/Netronome/agilio-ovs-openstack-plugin
