Description of the change
When user creates a new instances, one can now use a dumb_nics parameter to create several NICs in virtual machine, connected to the very same bridge as the first, real, one.
It should be very useful for somebody who can not wait till next release to put hands on multiple NICs per instance.
It leaves all network management part to network administrator on nodes and virtual machines, but still provides several NICs. Should be enough to wait till some OS NaaS will be created.

Added ability to create instances with several dumb nics.
This looks like it could be useful, but I'm not sure if it will be needed after trey's multinic patch comes in. I've requested a review from him to see what he thinks.
