Ihar Hrachyshka 0a75865b1f Use jsonutils instead of stdlib json
jsonutils provides multiple benefits in comparison to pure stdlib json
(like using simplejson on Python 2.6).

Similar patch was already merged before [1], but since it lacked hacking
rule to enforce jsonutils usage, new occurrences of stdlib json module
usage were introduced.

This patch switches all the code to using jsonutils and adds a hacking
rule to enforce the rule.

The hacking rule requires that jsonutils module does not mimic as 'json'
thru using import renames, so the code was updated not to rename the
module when doing import.

The hacking rule was shamelessly copied from the corresponding nova
review [2].

# Neuron REST Proxy Plug-in for Big Switch and FloodLight Controllers

This module provides a generic neutron plugin 'NeutronRestProxy' that
translates neutron function calls to authenticated REST requests (JSON supported)
to a set of redundant external network controllers.

It also keeps a local persistent store of neutron state that has been
setup using that API.

Currently the FloodLight Openflow Controller or the Big Switch Networks Controller
can be configured as external network controllers for this plugin.

For more details on this plugin, please refer to the following link:
