Subject: ovs-ctl: Store hostname as an external-id.

Update ovs-ctl to store the system hostname as an external-id, similar
to the system-id.  This is largely for convenience.  ovn-controller
will make use of it in a future commit.  Someone in the OpenDaylight
community requested the same thing in a discussion earlier this week.

While we're at it, set external-ids:hostname in ovs-sandbox as well.
