Add a note to the "How do I connect two bridges?" section of
bridges, that the OOT module has been removed. As this information
is now much less prevalent in the documentation.
This section which relates to using Open vSwitch 1.9 and earlier
and the need to use the OOT kernel module.
Support for the OOT module was removed in the v3.0 release of Open vSwitch.
And is now no longer supported by any maintained versions of Open vSwitch.

Perhaps we could consider dropping this section entirely?
