OVN can select any node (or nodes if HA is enabled) to schedule a router as
long as the node has ovn-controller service running in it and
ovn-bridge-mappings configured properly.
So, If you have external connectivity in your compute nodes and you are
fine with any of these compute nodes doing the centralized snat, you don't
need to have a network node.
