Introduce an optional parameter to `ovs-appctl ovs/route/show` for
adding/deleting user routes in non-default routing tables.

A table with ID doesn't have to exist before adding a route, OVS will
create a new table if it is missing and will add a user route there.
Though, to effect route lookup such table has to be referenced by a
routing rule.
