Joshua Klinesmith 39c9a7bff9 openvswitch: fix intree tunnel recursive dependency
Remove PROVIDES from all OVS kernel packages. The provider-
alternation logic in scripts/package-metadata.pl generates
recursive Kconfig dependencies when kmod-openvswitch-intree
provides kmod-openvswitch, because userspace packages
(openvswitch, ovsd, ovn-host) that +depend on kmod-openvswitch
get cross-referenced against the intree provider via
PACKAGE_<provider> < PACKAGE_<requester> conditions.

Verified locally: make defconfig produces zero OVS-related
recursive dependency errors with PROVIDES removed entirely.
The previous selective approach (keeping PROVIDES only for
openvswitch-intree) did not resolve the userspace recursion.

Users must install kmod-openvswitch-intree explicitly instead
of relying on provider alternation.
