[RFE] Dynamic port group support

[Vasyl Saienko]

While Ironic gives ability to create port groups with different configurations
(mode and properties). However changes to ToR are still applied in manual fashion.
To made port groups dynamic few things should be addressed:

* Ironic should pass port group settings to Neutron ML2 drivers. They are
  be responsible to create specified port group on the ToR switch.

* Mechanism to define port group configuration for end user should be defined.

    Start passing portgroup information to Neutron

    With this patch ironic starts passing portgroup information to Neutron
    via 'binding:profile'. This will allow to configure portgroup on the
    switch by appropriate ML2 driver during deployment.
    The example of binding:profile dictionary is:

    {
        'local_link_information':[
            {
                'switch_id': 'aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff',
                'port_id': 'Gig0/1'
            },
            {
                'switch_id': 'aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff',
                'port_id: 'Gig0/2'
            }
        ],
        'local_group_information': {
                'id': portgroup.uuid,
                'name': portgroup.name,
                'bond_mode': portgroup.mode,
                'bond_properties': {
                    'bond_propertyA': 'valueA',
                    'bond_propertyB': 'valueB',
                 }
        }
    }

Done in Pike! The only outstanding work is integration tests. That is being tracked in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ironic/+bug/1718481.
