Metadata: find instance by LLAddr
Registered by
Alexey I. Froloff
Currently metadata service uses IP address (that must be in fixed_ips list) when looking up instance. With Allowed Address Pairs extension or when using SLAC IPv6 addresses instance can use arbitrary IP address as source IP. Since metadata-proxy is running close to dhcp-agent, we can use MAC address (LLAddr) when looking up port in database.
