Title:
  compute should support choosing VIF-types generated by libvirt
  (especially bridge and ethernet type)

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Opinion

Bug description:
  Nova-Compute generates guest-XML-definitions with type „ethernet“.
  There should be an option in nova.conf to choose the VIF type. I
  suggest "libvirt_quantum_linuxbridge_net_type" for the name of the
  config option.  If the user configures "bridge"-type VIFs Compute
  should determine the bridge-name and include it into guest-XML-
  definition.
