Roman Podoliaka 146accfada vif: allow for creation of multiqueue taps in vrouter
This extends the work done in libvirt-virtio-net-multiqueue bp to
allow for enabling multiqueue mode for vrouter VIFs (OpenContrail).
In case of vrouter mechanism is slightly different and a tap device
created by nova-compute must already be in the multiqueue mode,
when it's passed to vrouter.

Implements blueprint vif-vrouter-multiqueue

features:
- When using libvirt driver, vrouter VIFs (OpenContrail) now supports
multiqueue mode, which allows to scale network performance across number
of vCPUs. To use this feature one needs to create instance with more than
1 vCPU from an image with ``hw_vif_multiqueue_enabled`` property set to
``true``.
