    Adding InfiniBand Support

    InfiniBand is computer-networking communications standard
    used in high-performance computing, features very high
    throughput and very low latency. Where ethernet uses MAC
    as unique identifier assigned to network interfaces,
    InfiniBand uses GUID. The difference is
    that MAC is 6 bytes and GID is 8 bytes. Moreover to be
    able to PXE boot on InfiniBand network we should use DHCP
    over InfiniBand https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4390.
    The major changes to allow it is to generate client-id per
    GID and add it as DHCP option to the neutron port.

    This patch update the neutron port with CLient-ID
    DHCP option when ironic port.extra has client-id
    paramater.
