    Use floating IP to connect different address scopes
    
    Currently, floating ip could be used to connect internal subnet and external
    subnet in different address scopes. But the internal subnets that are in the
    same address scope of external network are isolated. This is diagramed as
    follow:
    +---------------------+       +------------------------+
    |   address scope 1   |       |    address scope 2     |
    |                     |       |                        |
    |  +----------------+ |       |   +---+----------+-+   |
    |  |internal network| |       |   |external network|   |
    |  +------------^---+ |       |   +-------^--------+   |
    |               |     |       |           |            |
    |       +-------+--+  |       |   +-------+----+       |
    |       |fixed ip A+-------------^+floatingip B|       |
    |       +----------+  |       |   +------------+       |
    +---------------------+       |                        |
                                  | +--------+  +--------+ |
                                  | |internal|  |internal| |
                                  | +-----+--+  +----+---+ |
                                  +------------------------+
    
    This patch will make the fixed ip A be able to connect internal networks in
    address scope2. And internal networks in address scope2 are able to connect
    fixed ip A by visiting floating ip B.

Title:
  Support using floating IP to connect internal subnets in different
  address scopes

Status in neutron:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  This is a known limitation when discuss address scope with Carl.

  In the implementation of [1], floating ip could be used to connect
  internal subnet and external subnet in different address scopes. But
  the internal subnets that are in the same address scope of external
  network are isolated. This is diagramed in [2]

  Because they are in the same address scope, it is fair for fixed IP A
  to connect internal networks in address scope 2, just as it could
  connect to the external network in address scope 2.

  The target of this bug is to build the connection of fixed IP A and
  internal networks in address scope2. This is diagramed in [3]
