Previously when starting the dhcp agent the sync_state() process would be extremely expensive as it would query quantum server for each network. In order to improve performance a get_active_networks_info() was added so this information could be retrieved in one query rather than doing a query for each active network. The second part of this patch optimizes the logic to avoid calling get_dhcp_port(). Previously, this method was called once for each network which makes a call to get_subnets() and get_ports() unnecessarily as the dhcp agent can determine itself if it needs to update a port or create a port for dhcp. This patch also threads the inital sync process and maintains backwards compatibility with the previous rpc api. There was also a trivial change to the nvp_plugin where filters are assumed to be a dict. implements blueprint improve-dhcp-agent-performance Change-Id: I3b631057f595250dad76516faa9b421789f60953
