Ilya Maximets 91364d18de bridge: Pass interface's configuration to datapath.
This commit adds functionality to pass value of 'other_config' column
of 'Interface' table to datapath.

This may be used to pass not directly connected with netdev options and
configure behaviour of the datapath for different ports.
For example: pinning of rx queues to polling threads in dpif-netdev.
