    Get Me A LB
    
    Allows a request to be passed to the lbaas API that contains the full graph
    structure of a load balancer.  This means that an entire load balancer graph
    can be created in one POST to the API, or a partial graph can be.
    
    This creates a new driver method to the driver interface that when implemented
    will be called when a full or partial graph is attempted to be created.  If
    the driver does not implement this method, then the request is not allowed.

Title:
  [RFE] Create a full load balancing configuration with one API call

Status in neutron:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  There have been many requests to allow the API to expose the ability
  to create a load balancer, listener, pool, member, and health monitor
  in one single API request.  Some reasons for this:

  1) Drivers will know immediately up front what resources will be
  required to satisfy the end configuration.  They can make more
  efficient/optimized decisions based on this.

  2) It's not a good UX to have a user make at minimum 4 API requests
  before they can actually have a load balancer.

  3) Reducing the number of API requests will improve performance of the
  API server when at large scale and other services consuming the same
  API.
