Title:
  Allow POST of floating_ip_address for L3 extension

Status in OpenStack Neutron (virtual network service):
  In Progress

Bug description:
  The documentation to Create Floating IP suggests that the call shall
  allow the floating_ip_address to be selected by the caller, yet the
  code does not permit that and will not use the value:

  From http://docs.openstack.org/api/openstack-
  network/2.0/content/floatingip_create.html

  > An address for the floating ip will be automatically allocated, unless the floating_ip_address attribute is specified in the
  > request body. If the requested floating IP address does not fall in the external network's subnet range, a 400 error will be
  > returned. If the requested floating IP address is already in use, a 409 error code will be returned.

  A proposed patch will permiy the parameter on POST (but not change it
  via PUT). The policy on setting fixed_ip of a port applies on the
  underlying create port call on the external network, which also makes
  the necessary checks against out-of-range and duplicate addresses.
