ovs-vswitchd: Allow more convenient 0x short form for specifying DPIDs.
Until now, ovs-vswitchd has insisted that other-config:datapath-id be
exactly 16 hex digits. This commit allows shorter forms prefixed by 0x.
This was prompted by Faucet controller examples such as this one:

which tend to suggest datapath IDs like 0x1.
