[PATCH net-next, v2] tools: hv: Add a script to help bonding synthetic and VF NICs

This script helps to create bonding network devices based on synthetic NIC
(the virtual network adapter usually provided by Hyper-V) and the matching
VF NIC (SRIOV virtual function). So the synthetic NIC and VF NIC can
function as one network device, and fail over to the synthetic NIC if VF is
down.

+# The script helps creating bonding network devices based on synthetic NIC

+# VF NIC (SRIOV virtual function). So the synthetic NIC and VF NIC can
+# function as one network device, and fail over to the synthetic NIC if VF is
+# down.
+#
+# Usage:
+# - After configured vSwitch and vNIC with SRIOV, start Linux virtual
+#   machine (VM)
+# - Run this script on the VM. It will list the NIC pairs which should be
+#   bonded together. Also indicates which one should be the primary slave.
+# - User may create bonding NIC configurations based on the Distro manual.
+#   The bonding mode shoudl be "active-backup".
+#   Then, reboot the VM, so that the bonding config are enabled.
