LBaaS: make common agent based driver (unify haproxy reference impl)
Current haproxy-on-host driver implementation which is using agents is quite specific:
- with haproxy it is easier to deploy the whole loadbalancer config from scratch every time
then to create/
- namespace driver needs virtual interface driver on init,
other drivers may have their own specific parameters
So it is useful to unify reference agent implementation to:
- make it suite any driver which wants to use async mechanism
- have single lbaas agent type and hense single agent scheduling mechanism
All we need is a small revision of agent API and agent mechanism of loading device driver(s)

Whiteboard
5-Sep: This is the only async driver for Havana. The proposal for sharing more code is a good idea. No new drivers can be added to Havana, so the utility of shared code is limited until new drivers can be proposed. We should consider a merge early in Icehouse since that will benefit the community the most.
