Support 4-Byte AS Numbers
Now neutron_dynamic_routing supports 2 byte AS numbers only.
This patch expands AS numbers constraint so that it supports
4 byte AS numbers. It expects that operators use asplain
notation to set AS numbers[1]. That's backward compatible with
existing 2 byte AS numbers.

Title:
[RFE] BGP neutron should allow for 32bit ASN
Status in neutron:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Currently there is a limit hardcoded in Neutron that will only allow
16bit ASN being used in the configuration of BGP speakers and peers,
i.e. a range of [1..65535]. But with
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6793 it is possible for BGP
implementations to allow 32bit numbers to be used and in fact some
RIRs have already run out of 16bit ASNs and are only handing out new
ASNs that are above 65536.
So although the ryu-based reference implementation does not support
this, there may be other agents e.g. based on ExaBGP that will support
32bit ASNs being used, and it doesn't seem sensible that Neutron
should prevent this upfront.
