This patch is implementing the OVN agent metadata extension, by reusing the OVN metadata class. The class ``MetadataAgent`` is inherited in the ``MetadataExtension`` class. The goal is to use the same code in both implementations (until the OVN metadata agent is deprecated). The OVN agent metadata extension has a different initialization process. The OVN and OVS IDL connections are created during the extension initialization but are not accessible. The ``start`` method is used to load the configuration, execute the sync process and register the metadata extension. This extension will replace the need of the OVN metadata agent. The deprecation of this agent will imply the refactor of the existing code that now is shared between both agents. This new OVN agent will be tested in the "neutron-tempest-plugin-ovn" CI job, after the change done in the following patch.
