ovs-ctl: Allow selective start for db and switch
Currently, ``ovs-ctl start'' will attempt to start both the DB and vswitchd. This is quite convenient when the database already has all of the configuration values required, and when using a single services file for systemd integration. The same goes for the ``ovs-ctl stop'' command. However, there are some cases which are not easily covered. The case where we want to set values in the database prior to starting the forwarding path, as well as the case of supporting multiple service files, one per daemon (which is how systemd expects services to look).
