Randomize tunnel id query to avoid contention

When networks are created rapidly, neutron-servers compete
for segmentation ids which creates too much contention and
may lead to inability to choose available id in hardcoded amount
of attempts (11)
Randomize tunnel id selection so that condition is not hit.
