    using statically-configured linux bridges, and I'd assumed I could tell
    Neutron to use them.  Unfortunately, this is sort of true, but not
    enough; from the comments:
    
     NB: We can only control the name of the external br-ex bridge,
     because only the Neutron linuxbridge driver accepts both a map of
     physical networks to physical interfaces; and physical network to
     bridge names.  Nova assumes that the bridge it must plug a device
     into is named according to the physical network uuid.  Thus, for
     the linuxbridge case, we only setup bridge_mappings for
     br-ex... modulo a flag.  Hopefully in the future they will see the
     sense in allowing static bridge configurations.
    
    So for now, only br-ex is static; the others are dynamic.  What a pain
    for debugging!  Stupid.
    
    More importantly, this commit also takes integrates correctly with the
    new Emulab clientside improvements that let...
