Allow the user space to query what features are supported by the openvswitch
module. This will be used to allow or disallow certain configurations and/or
switch between newer and older APIs depending on what the kernel supports.
Two features are reported as supported by this patch: lwtunnel and IPv6
tunneling support. Theoretically, we could merge these two, as any of them
implies the other with this patch applied, but it's better to keep them
separate: kernel 4.3 supports lwtunnels but not IPv6 for ovs, and the
separation of the two flags allows us to backport a version of this patch
to 4.3 should the need arise.

This is intentionally submitted to net-next. Kernel 4.3 will be fine without
this feature (but despite that, I'd like to keep the two flags separate).
