Public bug reported:

The OVS library now allows registering a notification hook by
subclassing the Idl class and defining a notify() function. To be able
to use this in Neutron (and networking-ovn), it must be possible for the
Connection object to use a subclassed Idl. It currently is hardcoded to
instantiate its own idl from ovs.db.idl.Idl.

networking-ovn needs to pass in a subclassed Idl to be able to notify
neutron when a port is successfully wired. Neutron could use this to
avoid having to spawn ovsdb-client monitor when using the native OVSDB
driver.
