Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  The time complexity of opening the project/instances/attach_interface
  form box is O(N) where N is the number of networks in the project with
  a large prefactor.

  This is due to

  https://opendev.org/openstack/horizon/src/branch/master/openstack_dashboard/dashboards/project/instances/utils.py#L210

  Which loops over the networks and requests the ports associated with
  the network. For large projects this scaling behavior can become
  prohibitive.

  The patch [1] addresses this issue by reducing the number of API calls
  and hence the prefactor of the algorithm.

  [ Test Plan ]

  In order to reproduce the issue, create a Nova VM and then add many
  networks. On the instances tab in the Horizon UI click on "attach
  interface" for the VM. It will take a moment for the dialog to appear.
  The exact time until the dialog appears will depend on the number of
  networks linearly.

  With [1] the time it takes for the dialog box to appear will be
  significantly shorter.

  [ Where problems could occur ]

  The patch [1] affects the "attach interface" dialog box and could
  break this UI feature in case something was wrong with the
  implementation. It is also possible that due to a bug in the
  implementation some networks are missing from the dialog.
