recommended for security. Expand the UCI ovs config section to allow
configuring SSL CA, certificate and private key.

Each of these supports a disabled option, which should be
set to 0 to launch the respective daemons.
The ovs section section also supports the options below, to configure a set of
SSL CA, certificate and private key. After adding these to Open vSwitch, you
may specify ssl: connection methods for e.g. the OpenFlow controller. Note that
Open vSwitch only reads these files during startup, so it needs to be restarted
after adding or changing these options.
| Name | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|----------|---------|----------|---------|-----------------------------------|
| disabled | boolean | no | 0 | If set to 1, do not configure SSL |
| ca | string | no | (none) | Path to CA certificate |
| cert | string | no | (none) | Path to certificate |
| key | string | no | (none) | Path to private key |
The ovs_bridge section also supports the options below,
for initialising a virtual bridge with an OpenFlow controller.
