Code Issues Proposed changes

Fix DB connection configuration for `ovn-northd`

Browse Source 
We provide our own systemd service files with this change.  To be
able to pass the correct command line arguments to ``ovn-nortrhd``
we need to create a ``/etc/openvswitch/ovn-northd-db-params.conf``
which has the side effect of profoundly changing the behaviour of
the ``ovn-ctl`` tool that the ``ovn-central`` init script makes use
of.  The systemd service files should be upstreamed.

Also fix the ``ovn-remote`` setting in the local OVSDB, handy for
executing management tools on the units.

Update documentation.

# Overview
OVN provides open source network virtualization for Open vSwitch (OVS).
This charm provides the Northbound and Southbound OVSDB Databases and the
Open Virtual Network (OVN) central control daemon (`ovn-northd`).
> **Note**: The OVN charms are considered preview charms.
# Usage
OVN makes use of Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) to authenticate and authorize
control plane communication. The charm requires a Certificate Authority to be
present in the model as represented by the `certificates` relation.
There is a [OVN overlay bundle](https://github.com/openstack-charmers/openstack-bundles/blob/master/development/overlays/openstack-base-ovn.yaml)
for use in conjunction with the [OpenStack Base bundle](https://github.com/openstack-charmers/openstack-bundles/blob/master/development/openstack-base-bionic-train/bundle.yaml)
which give an example of how you can automate certificate lifecycle management
with the help from [Vault](https://jaas.ai/vault/).
Please refer to the [Open Virtual Network](https://docs.openstack.org/project-deploy-guide/charm-deployment-guide/latest/app-ovn.html) section of
the [OpenStack Charms Deployment Guide](https://docs.openstack.org/project-deploy-guide/charm-deployment-guide/latest/index.html)
for information about deploying OVN with OpenStack.
## Network Spaces support
This charm supports the use of Juju Network Spaces.
By binding the `ovsdb`, `ovsdb-cms` and `ovsdb-peer` endpoints you can
influence which interface will be used for communication with consumers of
the Southbound DB, Cloud Management Systems (CMS) and cluster internal
communication.
