The ``virtio-forwarder`` VNIC type has been added as another option for
setting the ``--vnic-type`` property on the ``port set`` and
``port create`` commands. This requests a low-latency virtio port inside
the instance, likely backed by hardware acceleration. Currently the
Agilio OVS external plugin provides support for this, with support from
other vendors following soon.
