Previously Kolla Ansible hard-coded Neutron physical networks starting at physnet1 up to physnetN, matching the number of interfaces in neutron_external_interface and bridges in neutron_bridge_name. Sometimes we may want to customise the physical network names used. This may be to allow for not all hosts having access to all physical networks, or to use more descriptive names. For example, in an environment with a separate physical network for Ironic provisioning, controllers might have access to two physical networks, while compute nodes have access to one. This change extends the 'physical_network' network attribute to make it possible to customise the Neutron physical network names used for the OVS, OVN, Linux bridge and OVS DPDK plugins. The default behaviour is unchanged. Depends-On: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/kolla-ansible/+/922320 Change-Id: I214444c60653f484fcda6275cc725879d14f9e7a
