Dragonflow L2 Agentless Design

Registered by Gal Sagie

Dragonflow eliminate the need to run L3 agent in the compute host.

However L2 agent still exists for tunnelling setup. (and running of firewall agent
which can also be removed - https://blueprints.launchpad.net/dragonflow/+spec/security-group-dragonflow-driver)

If we implement this tunnelling set-up from the controller we can also remove the need to run the L2 agent on every compute node.

This achieve agent less architecture which saves resources, RPC sending and simplifies the code and operation of new compute nodes.

We need to implement L2 with the controller and add the controller setting in the devstack script
