Bug Fix(es):

* Previously, the heal info cache periodic task used the network info cache to heal the network info cache. If the cache was corrupted or missing, the heal info cache task could not heal the network info cache.

With this update, the heal info cache uses VM data from Neutron when healing the network info cache. (BZ#1703225)

* Previously, evacuation, migration, and resize operations took unnecessarily long to process on destination hosts with a large number of network interfaces. This was due to the my_ip configuration printing a warning when it did not find any of the host interfaces.

With this update, the my_ip configuration occurs only once during host initialization. This reduces the time it takes to process migrations, evacuations, and resize operations. (BZ#1732879)
