Advertise which network backend is in use in DB

For clients to determine which network backend is in use a key 
"network_backend" is added to the Host.software_version map on each host. The 
value of this key can be (same as the contents of /var/xensource/network.conf):

    * bridge: the Linux bridging backend is in use;
    * openvswitch: the Open vSwitch backend is in use.
