Gateway Device extension API
Implement gateway device management extension API for midonet neutron plugin
Gateway device is relevant for several use cases:
1. Connecting virtual network to Physical Servers (via HW VTEP)
2. Supporting Direct Connect between Peering Facility and Private Cloud
3. Supporting Router Peering, connecting multiple sites across WAN network.
All the above cases require physical or virtual gateway device to support connectivity.
We need a way to define and setup these devices. Gateway device management API is going to be used in order to manage the following:
-- Device type
-- Device name/uuid
-- Device management IP/Port
-- Device Tunneling Table
-- Device Tunnel IPs

Whiteboard
To simplify the implementation, I suggest that we follow how L3 Service plugin is implemented. We want to keep everything in the networking-midonet package if possible. So I think we can do something like the following to keep consistent with the current codebase:
* Define the extension in midonet/
* Define the data models and add a migration script
* Implement the plugin in midonet/
* Write unit tests in midonet/
