tools/xl: add vlan keyword to vif option

Update parse_nic_config() to support a new `vlan' keyword. This
keyword specifies the VLAN configuration to assign to the VIF when
attaching it to the bridge port, on operating systems that support
the capability (e.g. Linux). The vlan keyword will allow one or
more VLANs to be configured on the VIF when adding it to the bridge
port. This will be done by the vif-bridge script and functions.

+Specifies the VLAN configuration. The format of this parameter is one or more
+VLAN IDs or ranges separated by forward slashes. Each term can be:
+
+=over
+
+=item *
+
+B<vlan> - a single VLAN ID in the range 1 to 4094. This can optionally followed
+by a B<p> to indicate the PVID or by a B<u> to indicate an untagged VLAN. C<p>
+implies B<u>.
+
+=item *
+
+B<vlan1>-B<vlan2> - a range of VLAN IDs from B<vlan1> to B<vlan2>, both between
+1 and 4094 and B<vlan1> being less than or equal to B<vlan2>. This can be
+optionally followed by a B<u> to indicate that the range of VLANs are untagged.
+
+=item *
+
+B<vlan>+B<offset>xB<count> - describing a range of VLAN IDs starting at B<vlan>
+with B<count> additional entries, each incremented by B<offset>. This can be
+optionally followed by a B<u> to indicate that the range of VLANs are untagged.
+
+=back
+
+Note, one VLAN ID must be marked as the PVID. In the case of a vlan
+specification consisting of a single VLAN ID (e.g. C<vlan=10>), the B<p> suffix
+may be omitted. Specifying more than one untagged VLAN ID is an advanced
+configuration - use with caution.
+
+For example:
+
+        'vlan=10' -- meaning a single VLAN that is the PVID.
+        'vlan=10p/20' -- VLAN 10 is the PVID and VLAN 20 is tagged.
+        'vlan=10p/100+10x4' -- VLANs 10, 100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150.
