rhel: Fix upgrade path
There is a bug in the upgrade path from the old kmod-openvswitch SysV based RPM to the new openvswitch-kmod systemd based RPM. Since the name of the package is changed it is not possible to use the yum or rpm upgrade options. This prevents passing in a 1 or 2 to the %postun scriptlet section of the older RPM and that causes the section to be treated as an 'erase'. The old kmod-openvswitch %postun section proceeds to erase the symlinks in ../weak-updates/openvwswitch that the installation of the new package had just created. Fix this by adding a %posttrans tag to the systemd spec file. This scriptlet is called after the symlinks have just been erased and it calls the ovs-kmod-manage.sh script to recreate the symlinks and run depmod -a again so that the correct kernel modules will be found and loaded.
