Separate mgmt-bridge for VSD (in clustered environment)

[madhukark]

The currently build_vars.yml assumes that all VSDs in a clustered environment will be connected to the same management bridge. While this is true in most cases, I have come across customer production environments where each VSD is being deployed on a separate (routable) network. It would be flexible if build_vars had the following:

• Global mgmt_bridge
• mgmt_bridge defined in each myvsds section. This would by default be using the global mgmt_bridge but users will have the option to edit and change it needed (Thanks Brian for the idea!)

Is this something that was already started ? Apart from VSD, this would be useful as well for VSC, Elastic, etc.

At TotalPlay we had a case where different hosts used different bridge names, because they were in different dcs (different teams?)

This would require bridgenames to be associated with individual vms, may not be the same for all vsds for example

It's a fairly trivial change, providing much flexibility
