[SRU] backport msgpack max_buffer_size patch to Focal

for context it would appear that the main culprit for triggering this is when neutron calls to [1] on hosts that have large numbers of devices.

In ussuri this is from the following places:

$ egrep -r "\.get_devices(|_info)\(" neutron/{agent,plugins}
neutron/agent/windows/ip_lib.py: for device in self.get_devices():
neutron/agent/linux/dhcp.py: for d in ns_ip.get_devices():
neutron/agent/linux/ip_lib.py: return not self.get_devices()
neutron/agent/l3/namespaces.py: for d in ns_ip.get_devices():
neutron/agent/l3/dvr_fip_ns.py: devices = ip_wrapper.get_devices()
neutron/agent/l3/dvr_fip_ns.py: for d in ip_wrapper.get_devices():
neutron/agent/l3/dvr_edge_router.py: for d in ns_ip.get_devices():
neutron/agent/l3/dvr_snat_ns.py: for d in ns_ip.get_devices():
neutron/agent/l3/router_info.py: ip_devs = ip_wrapper.get_devices()
neutron/plugins/ml2/drivers/macvtap/agent/macvtap_neutron_agent.py: devices = ip_lib.IPWrapper().get_devices(True)
neutron/plugins/ml2/drivers/linuxbridge/agent/linuxbridge_neutron_agent.py: devices = self.ip.get_devices(True)

I have personally found that in a l3ha+dvr environment with > 200 routers, neutron hitting this limit when scanning the fip ns devices.

> [Where problems could occur]

FTR, I was concerned about any OOM type conditions that might be introduced especially if controllable by a third party, but I saw this in the patch description:

> Also, since `msgpack` is only being used by the internal API, we're not worried about a third party coming in and overwhelming the system by deserializing calls.

However https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-oslo.privsep/+bug/1896734/comments/37 talks of large number of ports. Is there any similar "large numbers" situation in which this change might introduce an OOM condition in practice, when it didn't before?

Accepting regardless - that's just something to look out for in consideration of testing. If you think it can't occur then it's fine :)
