man: update nm-openswitch example
Seems that a quite common openswitch basic configuration consist of a one bridge, one port and one interface, all with the same interface name. When performing such configuration in NetworkManager you need to specify the slave-type for the ovs-interface, otherwise the master interface specified there may match the bridge interface, resulting in an error. So, let's specify the slave-type for the ovs-interface, so that the example will work also when the same interface name is specified for both the ovs-bridge and the ovs-port. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1638038

<para>As said above, you need to create a Port even for a single interface.
