netdev-vport: Manage ethernet addresses in userspace.

Letting netdev-vport manage ethernet addresses itself instead of
relying on the datapath has several advantages.  It simplifies the
code, is significantly more efficient, and will work when there is
no longer a one to one mapping from netdev-vports to datapath
vports.
