Nate Johnston 55a503b4c9 Add custom ethertype processing
The OVS Firewall blocks traffic that does not have either the IPv4 or
IPv6 ethertypes at present.  This is a behavior change compared to the
iptables_hybrid firewall, which only operates on IP packets and thus
does not address other ethertypes.

This is a lightweight change that sets a configuration option in the
neutron openvswitch agent configuration file for permitted ethertypes
and then ensures that the requested ethertypes are permitted on
initialization.  This addresses the security and usability concerns on
both master and stable branches while a full-fledged extension to the
security groups API is considered.
