Lajos Katona a85c5ed3fb supported_vnic_type configurable for ovs
Now supported_vnic_types is hardcoded to the mechanism drivers, but that
can depend on several factors, like type of the NIC, admin decision,
etc.
With this patch we put the right to decide which vnic types are
supported for ovs agent into the hands of the admin, by allowing
blacklisting items from the mechanism driver specific list.

Add new configuration group ``ovs_driver`` and new configuration option
under it ``vnic_type_blacklist``, to make the previously hardcoded
``supported_vnic_types`` parameter of the OpenvswitchMechanismDriver
configurable.
The ``vnic_types`` listed in the blacklist will be removed from the
supported_vnic_types list.
