Discussion: remove dependency on neutron.manager in neutron_ovn_db_sync_util

[Boden R]

This is a discussion bug in regards to the neutron-lib effort.
We want to break dependencies with neutron.manager and are specifically looking at uses of init().

Today neutron_ovn_db_sync_util uses manager.init() to get reference to a driver/plugin [1].

Is there a way we can refactor [1] to not use manager.init()? Perhaps directly create the reference?

Given some direction from the networking-ovn team, I'm happy to do the refactoring. Or someone from the team and drive it.
