    Ensure ML2's create/update_port methods not in transaction
    
    This adds a check to the ML2 create and update port methods which
    are called by other services to manipulate ports. This check prevents
    them from passing in a context that is already part of an ongoing DB
    session because we do not want DB rollbacks to be allowed after the
    ML2 plugin calls postcommit methods on drivers.
    
    This also adds a temporary hack to set an attribute on the context
    to skip this check to accomadate two L3 code-paths and a subnet
    code-path that have port manipulations entangled in transactions.
    This attribute will ultimately be removed once these paths are
    refactored.

Title:
  ML2's assumptions about transactions should be explicit

Status in neutron:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The create/update/delete of the core resource in ML2 all assume that
  they will not be called inside of a transaction because they notify
  drivers with a postcommit call before returning. Calling ML2 with a
  session already in a transaction leads to unexpected behavior (e.g. no
  notifications to driver on a rollback) so we should enforce this
  assumption in code.
