include openvswitch documentation / package openvswitch-docs

[Ralf Heiringhoff]

Hi,

please add the INSTALL.* README.* openvswitch upstream documentation to one of the existing openvswitch packages or create a new openvswitch-docs package so users are able to find the upstream documentation under /usr/share/doc without downloading and extracting the source package.

Regards,
Ralf
