Rodolfo Alonso Hernandez 1ff8830e5c Add WebTest as dependency for testing 
Latest pecan release dropped this dependency. This is why now it is
needed to explicitly install it during testing.

This patch also registers the Neutron core common config options in
``TaasExtensionTestCase``. Since [1], the configuration options
must be explicitly loaded.

Tap as a Service

Tap-as-a-Service (TaaS) is an extension to the OpenStack network service (Neutron). It provides remote port mirroring capability for tenant virtual networks.

Port mirroring involves sending a copy of packets entering and/or leaving one port to another port, which is usually different from the original destinations of the packets being mirrored.

This service has been primarily designed to help tenants (or the cloud administrator) debug complex virtual networks and gain visibility into their VMs, by monitoring the network traffic associated with them. TaaS honors tenant boundaries and its mirror sessions are capable of spanning across multiple compute and network nodes. It serves as an essential infrastructure component that can be utilized for supplying data to a variety of network analytics and security applications (e.g. IDS).
