Merge Libvirt....VirtualPortDriver class into LibvirtGenericVIFDriver

The LibvirtOpenVswitchVirtualPortDriver VIF driver and the
LibvirtOpenVswitchDriver VIF driver both support OpenVswitch
based guest configs. The only difference is that the former
uses libvirt's modern <network type='bridge'> with vport
profile specified, while the latter uses <network type='ethernet'>
and does all openvswitch setup itself. The reason for the latter
is to support running against libvirt versions older than 0.9.11
Rather than require the host admin to figure this out themselves,
the right behaviour can be choosen automatically based on the
libvirt connection's version number.

The LibvirtGenericVIFDriver class can use the 'vif_type' mapping
field to determine whether an OVS network configuration is
required. In combination with a check against the libvirt version
number, a dedicated driver for OVS bridge setup is no longer
required.

The LibvirtOpenVswitchVirtualPortDriver class functionality is
merged into LibvirtGenericVIFDriver. For backwards compatibility
with the Folsom release, the existing LibvirtOpenVswitchVirtualPortDriver
class is made to inherit from LibvirtGenericVIFDriver and directly
call the bridge specific setup APIs. This eases migration to
the new VIF impl during the Grizzly deployment lifecycle, with
an expectation that the LibvirtOpenVswitchVirtualPortDriver stub
will be deleted after the Havana release.
