python2 library is now removed as the transition has been done by the
upstream project
OVN is now a separate project released with its own release plan and
it's not included within openvswitch starting with ovs 2.13.
openvswitch.mk is split out from the main Makefile for adding ovn
packages back in following commits.
The following two patches are already included in 2.13
- ovsdb-idlc-fix-dict-change-during-iteration.patch
- compat-Include-confirm_neigh-parameter-if-needed.patch

- initscript: skip when ctl scripts are absent. When only ovs is
installed, this will quash error messages of ovn-ctl not found when
invoking stop
- openvswitch-common: include ovs-kmod-ctl
- patches: ovs-save: compatible with busybox ip command

New scheme mainly provides three packages: openvswitch,
openvswitch-ovn-north, openvswitch-ovn-controller. These should fit
most usage scenarios. Other subpackages like openvswitch-libXXX
etc. are there for dependency management and are hidden from the
menu.
Many python and shell scripts are removed in this revision. Most of
them cannot run out of box at all for lack of dependencies. Others
being legacy ones are not that useful now. Add them back at later time
when real need appears
Below are a simple listing of additions
- initscript now incorporate also ovn north and controller support
- ovn-ctl and ovs-ctl can be invoked directly from within $PATH
