This is for Octavia’s service VM image, not it’s mainline API service (which uses pecan and all the normal stuff.)

It’s true that packagers can create their own service VM images, and run whatever they like, but we must do something for the ref implementation that runs in the gate. And at present, we’ve chosen gunicorn, because the built-in server in flask is flaky in our CI tests.
