Prior to this patch, the metadata agent was writing into SB database when a network had been provisioned with metadata on a particular chassis. Then, neutron-server would wait for that event to happen with a 15s timeout before sending the vif-plugged event to Nova. By removing this mechanism: 1) We'll save writes to OVN SB database which, in highly loaded systems and at scale reduces significantly the load on ovsdb-server. 2) Ignoring healthchecks (that still requires write to the SB DB), we can make OVN metadata agent to connect to slave instances when using active-backup OVN databases since writes are not needed. 3) There's a chance that the VM boots very fast and requests metadata before the service is ready but since the timeout was 15 seconds, we can safely rely on the the cloud-init retries.
