'cmd_show_table'.
Sometimes, it is desirable to print the table with weak reference to
the table specified in 'struct cmd_show_table'. For example the
Port_Binding table rows in OVN_Southbound database that refer to the
same Chassis table row can be printed under the same chassis entry
in 'ovn-sbctl show' output.
To achieve it, this commit adds a new struct in 'struct cmd_show_table'
that allows users to print a table with weak reference to 'table'
specified in 'struct cmd_show_table'. The 'ovn-sbctl' which now prints
the Port_Binding entries with Chassis table, is the first user of this
new feature.

This patch adds bash command-line completion script for ovs-vsctl.
Therein, codes are added to ovs-vsctl to allow it to print the
options and command arguments. The ovs-vsctl-bashcomp.bash will
parse the vsctl command and complete on the user input.
The completion script can do the following::
- display available completions and complete on user input for
global/local options, sub-commands, and arguments.
- query database and expand keywords like 'table/record/column/key'
to available completions.
- deal with argument relations like 'one and more', 'zero or one'.
- complete multiple ovs-vsctl commands cascaded via '--'.
To use the script, either copy it inside /etc/bash_completion.d/
or manually run it via . ovs-vsctl-bashcomp.bash.

Every row in the database has a UUID, generated by the database server.
Rows in most tables also have a user-assigned name (e.g. a bridge or port
or interface name). The ovs-vsctl database commands (e.g. "set", "get",
"list", ...) accept both UUIDs and names, but until now if a command's
argument had the form of a UUID, then it had to be the database-assigned
UUID for a row; that is, ovs-vsctl did not check whether it was the name
of a row. This commit changes that: a UUID argument to a database command
is now first checked against database UUIDs then, if it is not a database
UUID, it is checked as the name of a row.
This is prompted by Windows integration with OpenStack, which uses UUIDs
as port names.

OVSDB has the concept of "immutable" columns, which are columns whose
values are fixed once a row is inserted. Until now, ovs-vsctl has not
allowed these columns to be modified at all. However, this is a little too
strict, because these columns can be set to any value at the time that the
row is inserted. This commit relaxes the ovs-vsctl requirement, then, to
allow an immutable column's value to be modified if its row has been
inserted within this transaction.

ovs-vsctl is a command-line interface to the Open vSwitch database,
and as such it just modifies the desired Open vSwitch configuration in
the database. ovs-vswitchd, on the other hand, monitors the database
and implements the actual configuration specified in the database.
This can lead to surprises when the user makes a change to the
database, with ovs-vsctl, that ovs-vswitchd cannot actually
implement. In such a case, the ovs-vsctl command silently succeeds
(because the database was successfully updated) but its desired
effects don't actually take place. One good example of such a change
is attempting to add a port with a misspelled name (e.g. ``ovs-vsctl
add-port br0 fth0'', where fth0 should be eth0); another is creating
a bridge or a port whose name is longer than supported
(e.g. ``ovs-vsctl add-br'' with a 16-character bridge name on
Linux). It can take users a long time to realize the error, because it
requires looking through the ovs-vswitchd log.
The patch improves the situation by checking whether operations that
ovs executes succeed and report an error when
they do not. This patch only report add-br and add-port
operation errors by examining the `ofport' value that
ovs-vswitchd stores into the database record for the newly created
interface. Until ovs-vswitchd finishes implementing the new
configuration, this column is empty, and after it finishes it is
either -1 (on failure) or a positive number (on success).

Until now, ovs-vsctl has kept trying to the database server until it
succeeded or the timeout expired (if one was specified with --timeout).
This meant that if ovsdb-server wasn't running, then ovs-vsctl would hang.
The result was that almost every ovs-vsctl invocation in scripts specified
a timeout on the off-chance that the database server might not be running.
But it's difficult to choose a good timeout. A timeout that is too short
can cause spurious failures. A timeout that is too long causes long delays
if the server really isn't running.
This commit should alleviate this problem. It changes ovs-vsctl's behavior
so that, if it fails to connect to the server, it exits unsuccessfully.
This makes --timeout obsolete for the purpose of avoiding a hang if the
database server isn't running. (--timeout is still useful to avoid a hang
if ovsdb-server is running but ovs-vswitchd is not, for ovs-vsctl commands
that modify the database. --no-wait also avoids that issue.)

A few ovs-vsctl commands have accepted --if-exists options for some time,
to make it possible to execute them in cases where it doesn't really

other commands.
This is intended for initial use with "ovs-vsctl set interface <iface>
ofport_request=<number>" commands in ovs-ctl for upgrades from OVS 1.9
to later versions.
This makes a very small incompatible change to the ovs-vsctl "get"

allowed to be missing; now with --if-eixsts, also records are allowed
to be missing.
