rhel: Ensure proper OVS kernel modules load after upgrade

Add post install and post un-install scripts to make sure that the
openvswitch kernel modules are correctly written with the weak-modules
utility. This ensures that after an upgrade to a newer kernel the
correct openvswitch kernel modules from a previous installation will
be found by the depmod search path.
