Generic os-vif offloads

Registered by Jan Gutter

The existing method in os-vif is to pass offload metadata is via a ``VIFPortProfileOVSRepresentor`` port profile object. This is currently used by the ``ovs`` reference plugin and the external ``agilio_ovs`` plugin. This blueprint tracks refactoring of the interface to support more VIF types and offload modes.
