Python bindings for the ethtool kernel interface, that allows querying and

PCI locations.

Update Information:

Fixed several memory leak issues and NETLINK socket issues which could
cause SELinux to report AVC if python-ethtool is used with scripts
which forks out sub-processes.  Also added man pages for
pethtool and pifconfig.  (This is a re-push, with man pages included for real).
