Title:
  Inconsistent keyword for automatic deletion of resources during unit
  tests

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

Bug description:
  Ports, networks and subnets have a do_delete=True parameter. By
  default, these resources are deleted at the end of the context manager
  scope. All other resources use a different semantic: no_delete=False.

  This causes confusing situations such as:
  with self.subnet(network, do_delete=False) as subnet:
      with self.security_group(no_delete=True) as sg:
          pass

  I personally fell to the pitfall of using do_delete for the security
  group and was surprised when it wasn't deleted at the end of the
  scope.

  Finally, the double negative of no_delete=False is confusing and
  should be avoided.
