API extension for agent scheduler (NVP plugin)

Registered by Armando Migliaccio

NVP can use the quantum dhcp agent to provide dhcp services to tenant VM's. The aim of this blueprint is to provide support to the agent scheduler to allow the deployment of multiple dhcp agents. This improves scalability and avoid SPoF's. For more information, please read:

- http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-network/admin/content/demo_multiple_operation.html
- http://docs.openstack.org/api/openstack-network/2.0/content/agent_ext.html

Support to this extension is rather minimal and it reduces itself to just ensuring that the API extension is properly hooked up with the plugin.

Whiteboard

After looking at blueprint:

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/quantum/+spec/lbaas-agent-scheduler

And taking into account the fact that NVP does not need any L3 agent capabilities, I think there's room for restructuring the base extension to allow the plugins to discern between what's actually provided and what not. I would like to propose we split the base extension to allow composability.
