Ihar Hrachyshka 38531ca59c Revert "ML2: Configure path_mtu to default to 1500 bytes"
This reverts commit 7a4633a9ca.

Revert to using 0 as the default value for path_mtu.

In most situations, underlying MTU does not differ for tunnel backed and
vlan/flat tenant networks, in which case the only configuration expected
from operators is setting global_physnet_mtu to the appropriate MTU
value as reflecting all data paths that tenant traffic may take between
nodes.

But with the non-zero value set for path_mtu, if an operator would like
to raise the global underlying MTU used by neutron to support Jumbo
frames, both global_physnet_mtu and path_mtu need a bump, which is not
ideal.

So switch back to using a zero value for path_mtu, effectively making it
not participating in MTU calculation, unless explicitly overridden.

Left the original release note intact since it reflects the state for
Mitaka.

Added a release note for the change.
