Currently it is not possible to determine the speed of an interface
and whether a link is actually detected from the API. Orchestrating
platforms want to be able to determine when the link has failed and
where multiple speeds may be available which one the interface is
actually connected at. This commit introduces an extension to our
interface XML (without implementation to interface driver backends):
<interface type='ethernet' name='eth0'>
<start mode='none'/>
<mac address='aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff'/>
<link speed='1000' state='up'/>
<mtu size='1492'/>
...
</interface>
Where @speed is negotiated link speed in Mbits per second, and state
is the current NIC state (can be one of the following: "unknown",
"notpresent", "down", "lowerlayerdown","testing", "dormant", "up").

The RNG now supports IPv6 and bonds attached to bridges, along with
some other minor tweaks. All test files from netcf have been copied to
the test directory and added to the xml2xml and schema tests (and they
all pass, of course ;-)
* docs/schemas/interface.rng: schemas for the interface XML files
directly imported from netcf-0.1.0
* tests/interfaceschemadata/*.xml: set of test files from netcf-0.1.0
changed to use single quote instead of double quote
