Implement support of 'insmod' and 'modprobe' commands into ModuleManager
Module manager has been enhanced to support both 'insmod' and 'modprobe' commands for kernel module insertion. In case, that .ko suffix is detected then insmod will be used otherwise modprobe will be called. This allows user to specify full path to each module. For example vanilla ovs module can be defined as "OVS_DIR_VANILLA + 'datapath/linux/openvswitch.ko'" to load kernel module matching OVS vanilla source tree version.
