    Create knob to prevent caching ssh connection

    Create a new initialization knob named never_cache_ssh_connection.
    This boolean is False by default allowing multiple ssh connections
    to the Nexus switch to be cached as it behaves today. When there
    are multiple neutron processes/controllers and/or non-neutron ssh(xml)
    connections, this is an issue since processes hold onto a connection
    while the Nexus devices supports a maximum of 8 sessions. As a result,
    further ssh connections will fail. In this case, the boolean should be
    set to True causing each connection to be closed when a neutron event
    is complete.

    ML2 cisco_nexus MD: VLAN not created on switch

    As described in DE588,
    "With neutron multiworkers configured, there is a potential race condition
    issue where some of the VLANs will not be configured on one or more N9k
    switches.

    /etc/neutron/neutron.conf
    -------------------------
    api_workers=3
    rpc_workers=3"

    Fix is to allow the vlan create command to be sent down to a switch
    under most event conditions. Long term fix will be to introduce a new
    column in the port binding DB table that indicates the true state of the
    entry/row.

    Bubble up exceptions when Nexus replay enabled

    There are several changes made surrounding this bug.

    1) When replay is enabled, we should bubble exceptions
       for received port create/update/delete post_commit
       transactions. This was suppressed earlier by
       1422738.

    2) When an exception is encountered during a
       post_commit transaction, the driver will no longer
       mark the switch state to inactive to force a replay.
       This is no longer needed since 1481856 was introduced.
       So from this point on, only the replay thread will
       determine the state of the connection to the switch.

    3) In addition to accommodating 1 & 2 above, more detail
       data verification was added to the test code.
