Bug Description

In Queens release, neutron-vpnaas-agent has gone and the vpnaas feature is now implemented as l3-agent extension.

Looking at the VPNaaS release notes, there is no information in Queens [1].
vpnaas-agent change is an important topic and it should be documented in the release notes at least.

In addition, more important thing is that there is no documentation on how to upgrade Pike neutron-vpn-agent to Queens vpnaas L3 agent extension (with L3-agent). We must document what operators need to do during upgrade. Perhaps the release note is the right place to document it (as the first target).

It seems better to propose a release note on this to stable/queens directly so that we can have a release note on this only in Queens. It is much clearer from readers perspective.

    Add release note on migration from vpn-agent to L3 agent extension

    Unfortunately we have no release note on VPNaaS l3 agent extensions.
    It is a big change from operator perspective, so it is worth documented
    as a release note.

    This commit is intentionally proposed directly to stable/queens
    so that we can have this only in the queens release notes.

Does that mean, that we must now remove keywords `vpnaas` or `neutron.services.vpn.plugin.VPNPlugin` from neutron.conf `service_plugins` option?
