dpif-linux: Choose port numbers more prudently.

Before this patch the kernel chose the lowest available number for
newly created datapath ports.  This patch moves the port number
choosing responsibility to user space, and implements a least
recently used port number queue in an attempt to avoid reuse.

Bug #2140.
