Fixes: bug #1119262
Remove cfg option default value and check if missing

Currently, several plugins already check config options at __init__()
for validity and will exit, if the settings are incorrect. However,
most (all?) config option definitions have default values, so if the
option is missing, a valid, but maybe unexpected value will be used.
This is what occurred in the bug.

The proposed fix is to take a config option, sql_connection, which is
used by many plugins, and remove the default value. Then, at init
time, when the config option is used in configure_db(), a check is
made for the value. If the value is not set, a warning is logged and
the value is set to the default, for db/api.py. It is expected that
this will be the only module to consume this config option.

Added UT to check that log warning is issued. Also, changed the timing
so that the test takes 0.25 secs vs 12 secs. Removed UTs in two plugin
tests that checked the default value for sql_connection.

Other alternatives explored in previous patches, were to either
raise an exception, or mark this config option as "required". This
resulted in a large number of changes to tests, and required config
overrides in plugins that imported quantum.db.api, but did not use
sql_connection.

In order to keep this solution (of this log-hanging fruit) fix, the
proposed, simpler change is being made.

Some cleanup to the Cisco plugin test case was also made, so that
the mock was more in line with what production code does.

Fix NVP L3 gateway ports admin_state_down on creation

Some of the transaction code that was added was removed in the L3 patch
for nvp. This reintroduced the logic where ports would be created in the
quantum db with admin_state_up=False. This caused L3 gateway patch ports
to be created with admin_state_up=False.
