While the "traditional" Linux bridge has been favored for a long time,
presently Open vSwitch is gaining favor.  Add ovn-host as an alternative
recommendation to bridge-utils.

Presently PvGRUB is the only packaged alternative to PyGRUB, but
alternatives are on the horizon.  Introduce the virtual
"xen-domu-bootloader" as something which alternatives (such as a proposed
future PyGRUB package) can provide.
