Conversation
We now only support running as a Neutron core plugin; no longer as an ML2 mechanism driver. Only update for current release and next. We could possibly go further back, but I'm not sure when we dropped pieces of the ML2 support, and anyone using an older release presumably already knows what is working for them.

Pull request overview
This PR updates Calico OpenStack documentation to remove references to running as an ML2 mechanism driver, aligning the docs with the current supported deployment model (Neutron core plugin only) for both “next” (unversioned) docs and the current release (v3.32).
Changes:
- Removes “ML2 mechanism driver” mentions across OpenStack docs, replacing with “core plugin”/“plugin” wording.
- Deletes ML2-specific configuration guidance from the OpenStack configuration page.
- Updates getting-started install prerequisites to remove “ML2 networking” wording.
