Title:
  Introducing a generic networking-controller project

Bug description:
  Currently, Neutron has separate big tent projects like networking-odl
  _[1], networking-onos _[2] and so on for making the communication
  between OpenStack and Open Source controller's like ODL _[3] and ONOS
  _[4] possible. After studying the interfaces and code from both the
  repositories, I could find most of the functionalities are identical
  and hence can be unified to single project.

  IMHO, it will be better to have a common project called 'networking-
  controller' which can make the communication between OpenStack and
  standard Open Source Controllers possible.

  Such an approach will
  -> Save time and effort by not working on the same stuffs across   
     different projects.
  -> Maintain all the code in a single repository.
  -> Avoid an introduction of a new project when a new Open Source 
     controller is introduced to Neutron in the future.

  By following this approach the community will get more time in
  developing other stuffs rather than repeating the same stuffs across
  different repositories and avoid extra overhead of maintaining
  different projects.
