Allow for creation of multiqueue TAPs in vrouter VIFs
Support for multiqueue feature of virtio-net was originally added in https:/
The idea of this BP is to extend the original spec to support multiqueue TAPs for vrouter VIFs (OpenContrail): in this case mechanism of VIF plugging is slightly different and multiqueue mode must be enabled on a tap device created by nova-compute before it's passed to vrouter.
The user interface of enabling multiqueue is preserved: `hw_vif_
