/testing/openvswitch - version bump to 2.01 + revised init scripts

** This is a clean patch against Master **

Version bump to 2.0.1

Init scripts improved to start ovsdb-server & ovs-vswitchd before
networking comes up. ovs-dbserver is now a hard dependency for
ovs-vswitchd to keep them in sync & prevent a hanging boot process.

LXC Guests now autostart correctly on reboots. MACVLAN interfaces
work out of the box with LXC. To use VETH interfaces with LXC do
*NOT* set 'lxc.network.link' in /var/lib/lxc/guest/config - the
VETH must be added manually with:

ovs-vsctl --may-exist add-br $BRIDGE
ovs-vsctl --may-exist add-port $BRIDGE $PORT

I removed ovs-controller as it's not needed to run openvswitch &
is no longer part of the current git. ovs-monitor will be
removed from a default installation in the next release as it is
poorly maintained & nobody really uses it.

I've tested openvswitch 2.0.1 & have it bridging VETH across NAT
& bridging MACVLAN interfaces internally without any problems.
Bonding should also work.
