    Deprecate nova_metadata_ip in favor of nova_metadata_host option
    
    nova_metadata_ip option name is a bit confusing as it accepts an ip but
    also a dns name (which is required when https protocol is used).
    
    This change deprecates nova_metadata_ip option in favor of
    nova_metadata_host option and updates option help to highlight that we
    can use an ip or a dns name.

Title:
  Neutron Metadata Agent Configuration - nova_metadata_ip

Status in neutron:
  Fix Released
Status in puppet-neutron:
  New

Bug description:
  I am not sure if this constitutes the tag 'bug'. However it has lead
  us to some confusion and I feel it should be updated.

  This option in neutron metadata configuration (and install docs) is
  misleading.

  {{{
  # IP address used by Nova metadata server. (string value)
  #nova_metadata_ip = 127.0.0.1
  }}}

  It implies the need to present an IP address for the nova metadata
  api. Where as in actual fact this can be a hostname or IP address.

  When using TLS encrypted sessions, this 'has' to be a hostname, else
  this ends in a SSL issue, as the hostname is embedded in the
  certificates.

  I am seeing this issue with OpenStack Liberty, however it appears to
  be in the configuration reference for Mitaka too, so I guess this is
  accross the board.

  If this needs to be listed in a different forum, please let me know!

  Thanks
