Slawek Kaplonski 740ab628f4 Remove usage of the "firewall_driver" in the neutron server
Back in Newton, patch [1] added to the agents possibility to report in
the heartbeat messages if hybrid plug of the ports is required or not.
Usage of "firewall_driver" option by mechanism drivers (so on the
server's side) was kept just for backward compatibility.
But as we are now about 4 years from the [1] I think it should be safe
to do small cleaning, remove usage of this option in the neutron server
and not confuse users where this config option has to be set and why.

The configuration option ``firewall_driver`` is no longer used by
neutron-server, it only applies to the L2 agent.
This was required for backward-compatibility for hybrid plugging,
but since the Newton release the L2 agent has been able to report
hybrid plugging is needed in it's report message back to the
server.
