commit cc8d12f9364760456c86e92378d529c0dd9aaa66

lacp: New "lacp-heartbeat" mode.
		
This commit creates a new heartbeat mode for LACP.  This mode
treats LACP as a protocol simply for monitoring link status.  It
strips out most of the sanity checks built into the protocol.
Addition of this mode makes "lacp-force-aggregatable" and
"lacp-strict" options obsolete so they are removed.

bond: Create new "bond-stable-id".
		
Stable bonding mode needs an ID to guarantee consistent slave
selection decisions across ovs-vswitchd instances.  Before this
patch, we used the lacp-port-id for this purpose.  However, LACP
places restrictions on how lacp-port-ids can be allocated which may
be inconvenient.  This patch creates a special purpose
bond-stable-id other_config setting which allows users to tweak
this value directly.

bond: Convert stb_id to 32bit parameter.
		
The 16 bits currently in use is artificially restrictive.
