[ironic] [networking-generic-switch] NGS performance and moving to an agent-based design

Hello,

We have been hitting performance issues with networking-generic-switch
(NGS), the Neutron ML2 plugin that performs dynamic reconfiguration of
physical switches, most notably used by Ironic.

In our quest to improve NGS performance, we have designed and implemented
an agent-based system for NGS, and we would now like to upstream it.

Since this is a fairly big change, and some parts of the design such as HA
are not completely clear yet, feel free to join the discussion on the RFE:

Regards,
Baptiste
