This patch adds info about the fact that FIP PFs aren't working when in the ML2/OVN backend distributed routing is enabled and provider networks are added to the router as internal networks.

* Floating IP Port Forwarding in provider networks and with distributed routing
60+
61+
Currently, when provider network types like ``vlan`` or ``flat`` are plugged
62+
to a router as internal networks while the ``enable_distributed_floating_ip``
63+
configuration option is enabled, Floating IP port forwardings
64+
which are using such router will not work properly.
65+
Due to an incompatible setting of the router to make traffic in the vlan/flat
66+
networks to be distributed but port forwardings are always centralized in
67+
ML2/OVN backend.
