[ovs-dev] [PATCH] ovs-ctl: Pull system_type and system_version from config file

Currently system-type and system-version can only be set through
ovs-vsctl and ovs-ctl in the commandline. This patch allows you
to place system-type.conf and system-version.conf files in $etcdir
and their contents will be used if no arguments are specified with
ovs-vsctl or ovs-ctl.

Issue: #9033
