Public bug reported:

[Overview]
Refactor Neutron configuration options to be in one place 'neutron/conf' similar to the Nova implementation found here: http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/nova-specs/specs/mitaka/approved/centralize-config-options.html

This would allow for centralization of all configuration options and
provide an easy way to import and gain access to the wide breadth of
configuration options available to Neutron.

[Proposal]

1. Introduce a new package: neutron/conf
2. Group modules logically under new package: i.e. common.py, securitygroups.py
3. Move all 'cfg.CONF.register_opts' and cfg declarations to new modules.
4. __init__.py in new package imports all modules so all options can be imported by: import neutron.conf

[Benefits]

- As a developer I will find all config options in one place and will add further config options to that central place.
- End user is not affected by this change.
