ovs-router: Introduce src option in ovs/route/add command.
When adding a route with ovs/route/add command, the source address
in "ovs_router_entry" structure is always the FIRST address that the
interface has. See "ovs_router_get_netdev_source_address"
function for more information.
If an interface has multiple ipv4 and/or ipv6 addresses, there are use
cases where the user wants to control the source address. This patch
therefore addresses this issue by adding a src parameter.
Note that same constraints also exist when caching routes from
Kernel FIB with Netlink, but are not dealt with in this patch.
