[RFE] The port flag "propagate_uplink_status" should be updatable

[Rodolfo Alonso]

The extension "uplink-status-propagation" adds a new field to the port resource: "propagate_uplink_status". This field is only settable at the creation of the port. Once defined, it cannot be changed.

This RFE proposes to be able to modify the value of this field once the port has been created.

NOTE: this field only affects ML2/SR-IOV mechanism driver and its agent. Check [1][2] for more info.

    Add new API extension ``uplink-status-propagation-updatable``

    Add the API extension ``uplink-status-propagation-updatable`` to make
    the port field ``propagate_uplink_status`` updatable. Now is possible
    to send a port PUT request to update the value defined during the
    creation.

    This change will have an effect in the ML2/SR-IOV agent that will need
    to update the VF status accordingly.

    Add extension "uplink-status-propagation-updatable"

    This extension allows to update the port flag "propagate_uplink_status",
    used by the ML2/SR-IOV agent to define a VF port link state as "auto"
    (the VF will mimic the PF port link status).

    The neutron-lib version required is at least 3.16.0, that includes [1].
