Title:
  Nicira Plugin need to work with different versions of the NVP API

Status in OpenStack Quantum (virtual network service):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The Nicira plugin is currently targeting a specific version of the NVP API.
  We need to ensure the same plugin can work even with different versions of the NVP controllers.

  This is important in order to allow NVP to be upgraded independently
  of Quantum.

  Changes should be limited to nvplib, the module for interfacing with the nvp api.
  This could be achieved, for instance, using some for of monkey patching to methods whose implementation changes from one version to another.

  Note: This cannot possibly be a general solution, but will work
  perfectly when there are minor changes in the NVP API that do not
  require any change in the Quantum logic
