Clean up the ovs-dpctl.py selftest utility to pass pylint.  All
changes are mechanical style fixes with no behavior change; the full
openvswitch.sh selftest suite passes (17/17) on this tree.

The series fixes all pylint warnings except 10 remaining C0301
line-too-long warnings (81-89 columns) on f-string constructions
that match the surrounding style, bringing the score from 7.66/10
to 9.93/10:

  patch 1: convert %-formatting to f-strings (C0209)
  patch 2: fix miscellaneous warnings (unused imports/variables,
           bare except, superfluous parens, etc.)
  patch 3: add missing module/class/method docstrings
           (C0114/C0115/C0116)
  patch 4: suppress framework-inherent complexity warnings

Minxi Hou (4):
  selftests: openvswitch: convert %-formatting to f-strings
  selftests: openvswitch: fix misc pylint warnings in ovs-dpctl.py
  selftests: openvswitch: add missing docstrings in ovs-dpctl.py
  selftests: openvswitch: suppress pylint complexity warnings

Convert all 86 instances of %-formatting to f-strings to fix
C0209 pylint warnings. No behavior change.

  Cc: aconole, davem, dev, echaudro, edumazet, i.maximets, kuba,
	linux-kernel, linux-kselftest, pabeni, shuah, horms, Minxi Hou

Fix miscellaneous pylint warnings with no behavior change:
  - W0611: remove unused import struct
  - W0702: replace bare except with except Exception
  - C0325: remove superfluous parentheses after return (3)
  - R1705: remove unnecessary elif after return (3)
  - W0108: replace unnecessary lambda with int
  - R1714: merge comparisons with in operator
  - W0719: replace raise Exception with raise ValueError
  - C1802: use implicit boolean test instead of len()
  - C0121: use is None instead of == None
  - R1719: simplify if-expression to bool test
  - R1703: simplify if/else to assignment expression
  - W0612: remove unused variables (keybits, maskbits, lst)
  - replace unused loop variable with underscore

Add file-level pylint:disable comments for warnings caused by
pyroute2 framework constraints that cannot be fixed without
restructuring the netlink attribute hierarchy.

After this patch, pylint reports 9.93/10 with 10 remaining
C0301 line-too-long warnings (81-89 columns) on f-string
constructions that match the surrounding style.
