Currently using ovs-ctl is not possible to specify additional options
for ovs-vswitchd and ovsdb-server (for example to specify a different
loglevel during daemon startup).

This series adds --ovs-vswitchd-options and --ovsdb-server-options
options to ovs-ctl in order to specify the additional options.

Due to word splitting it may not be possible to specify an option that
includes whitespaces.

The series also adds an example to
rhel/usr_share_openvswitch_scripts_systemd_sysconfig.template.

Thank you for the patches.

Please document the new options in utilities/ovs-ctl.8.

I'd be open to folding these together, unless you prefer to keep them
apart.
