* Update upstream OVS debian packaging to be on par with package
source in Debian/Ubuntu:
- Provide a openvswitch-switch-dpdk package that integrates with
the dpdk package in the distributions so that end users can opt
into a DPDK-enabled Open vSwitch binary.
- Provide systemd service files.
- Provide openvswitch-source package for reproducible integrated
build of for example OVN.
- Stop building shared library and subsequently remove
libopenvswitch and libopenvswitch-dev binary packages.

The packaging source in the OVS repository has drifted away from
what is currently in Debian and Ubuntu. This state is problematic
because from time to time someone tries to build packages from the
upstream OVS debian package source and then expect that package to
work with up-/down-grades from-/to/ distro versions.
To support the on-going work to remove the out of tree OVS kernel
driver from the repository [0], an update to the debian packaging
is also required. On the back of the discussion in [0] we agreed
that replacing the current version with what Debian and Ubuntu
is currently converging on would be preferable.
This commit is a first in a series to update the upstream OVS
debian packaging source to be up to date with what is currently
in Debian and Ubuntu.

Python 2 reaches end-of-life on January 1, 2020, which is only
a few months away. This means that OVS needs to stop depending
on in the next release that should occur roughly that same time.
Therefore, this commit removes all support for Python 2. It
also makes Python 3 a mandatory build dependency.
Some of the interesting consequences:
- HAVE_PYTHON, HAVE_PYTHON2, and HAVE_PYTHON3 conditionals have
been removed, since we now know that Python3 is available.
- $PYTHON and $PYTHON2 are removed, and $PYTHON3 is always
available.
- Many tests for Python 2 support have been removed, and the ones
that depended on Python 3 now run unconditionally. This allowed
several macros in the testsuite to be removed, making the code
clearer. This does make some of the changes to the testsuite
files large due to indentation level changes.
- #! lines for Python now use /usr/bin/python3 instead of
/usr/bin/python.
- Packaging depends on Python 3 packages.

ovs-l3ping is similar to ovs-test, but the main difference
is that it does not require administrator to open firewall
holes for the XML/RPC control connection. This is achieved
by encapsulating the Control Connection over the L3 tunnel
itself.
This tool is not intended as a replacement for ovs-test,
because ovs-test covers much broader set of test cases.
Sample usage:
Node1: ovs-l3ping -s 192.168.122.236,10.1.1.1 -t gre
Node2: ovs-l3ping -c 192.168.122.220,10.1.1.2,10.1.1.1 -t gre

Python 2.4 is obsolete, not present in Debian squeeze or sid, so don't
install Python modules for it.
It would be better to just put the files directly into
/usr/share/pyshared/ovs/, instead of in site-packages for some specific
Python version, but this causes problems for builds on squeeze, as
documented in commit bc3aa0bf5 (debian: Make python-openvswitch packaging
work with squeeze dh_python2.):
The dh_python2 helper in Debian squeeze has a limitation that is not
mentioned anywhere, as far as I can tell: Python files must be in
/usr/lib/python#.#/site-packages to be installed. The version in Debian
wheezy does not have the same limitation.
This meant that building the Debian packages on squeeze silently produced
a broken python-openvswitch package, whereas building the same thing on
wheezy built a working package.
This fixes the problem by putting the .py files where squeeze expects them.
It works on wheezy too.
A before-and-after "debdiff" shows that the only significant effect of this
commit is to drop python2.4 symlinks.

This tool will be a replacement for the current ovs-vlan-test
utility. Besides from connectivity issues it will also be able
to detect performance related issues in Open vSwitch setups.
Currently it uses UDP and TCP protocols for stressing.
