Boden R 534333ca9c rehome NeutronWorker class
This patch rehomes neutron.worker.NeutronWorker as
neutron_lib.worker.BaseWorker. While this class is only
used by networking-ovn out of the neutron tree today [1],
the ML2 MechanismDriver (publically extendable) supports
workers directly [2] (ex: get_workers()). As a result the worker
is part of our publicly extendable API and thus seems a likely
candidate for neutron-lib.

UTs and a release note are also included.

If a plugin needs to handle synchronization with the Neutron database and
do this only once instead of in every API worker, for instance, it would
define a BaseWorker class and the plugin would have get_workers return
an array of BaseWorker instances. For example:
class MyPlugin(...):
def get_workers(self):
return [MyPluginWorker()]
class MyPluginWorker(BaseWorker):
def start(self):
super(MyPluginWorker, self).start()
