ofproto: Support group mods in bundles.
Allow adding group mods in OpenFlow bundles. Group mods are executed
atomically with any flow mods in the same bundle. Mods are executed
in order, so that groups appearing in flow actions need to be inserted
in to the bundle before the dependent flow mods.
ovs-ofctl is enhanced to allow the '--bundle' option with group mod
commands. add-groups file format is enhanced to allow each line to be
preceded by one of the keywords "add", "modify", "delete",
"add_or_mod", "insert_bucket", or "remove_bucket".
ovs-ofctl also has a new "bundle" command that reads a file in which
each line contains one flow mod or group mod, and then executes them
all as a single atomic bundle transaction.
