Lucas Alvares Gomes f3a8e1547d [OVN][OVS] Different metadata_workers default based on driver
Both drivers have different approaches when it comes to the metatada
agent, for one the metadata agent for ML2/OVN runs on the compute nodes
(it's distributed) instead of the controller nodes.

The previous default of "<# of CPUs> / 2" did not make sense for ML2/OVN
and if left unchanged could result in scalation problems because of the
number of connections to the OVSDB Southbound database, as seeing in
this email thread for example [0].

This patch puts a placeholder value (None) on the default field of
the "metadata_workers" config by not setting it immediately and then
conditionally set the default value based on each driver:

* ML2/OVS defaults to <# CPUs> // 2, as before.
* ML2/OVN defaults to 2, as suggested in the bug description and also
  what's default in TripleO for the OVN driver.
