Currently, most implementations override the L3NatAgent class itself
for their own logic since there is no proper interface to extend
RouterInfo class. This adds unnecessary complexity for developers
who just want to extend router mechanism instead of whole RPC.
Add a RouterFactory class that developer can registers RouterInfo class
and delegate it for RouterInfo creation. Seperate functions and variables
which currently used externally to abstract class from RouterInfo, so that
extension can use the basic interface.
Provide the router registration function to the l3 extension API so that
extension can extend RouterInfo itself which correspond to each features
(ha, distribtued, ha + distributed)

Change network namespace add/delete/list code to use
pyroute2 library instead of calling /sbin/ip.
Also changed all in-tree callers to use the new calls.

In L2 agent extensions, when the agent extension needed access to a
datastructure within the L2 agent, an agent extension API object was created.
This API object would be the interface permitting agent extensions to have
access to those objects internal to the L2 agent.
This change implements a similar agent extension API object for the L3 agent
extensions. This is necessary to allow L3 agent extensions to have access to
the RouterInfo class, so that they can do lookups on it, for example
determining the namespace for a specific router. Without this API object, the
L3 agent extension would not have access to this structure.
