check for ebtables

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. if user does not install ebtables on a system but installs core, core
will build and run, but api calls to instantiate links will fail in a
cryptic (corepyd.log) manner

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
netns

Please provide any additional information below.

Probably would suggest to check when starting core that ebtables is working
on the platform.  A configure check may help too.

configure script now checks for ebtables during build
cored.py checks for ebtables during startup with call to checkexec() in 
core/netns/vnet.py
